It will eventually contain 20 million pages o f h is to r ic A m e r i c a n newspapers from 1836 to 1922 and offer educational e s sa y s on e v e ry t it le represented and a directory of all newspapers published in the United States from 1690 to the present. o f potential content to be included in the collection.” While some back issues of the Gazette, 1883-2009, are available on microfilm at the Heppner museum, K aren E stlu n d , d igital collections coordinator for the University of Oregon’s Knight Library and head of the statewide Oregon Digital Newspaper Project, says the program w ill deliver access for people who can’t get to a library to use microfilm. “The full text available with the digitized images a llo w s fo r k e y w o rd searching, which revolutionizes research of old newspapers. No longer will a researcher need to spend hours, days or even weeks scrolling through microfilm hoping to catch what they’re looking to find,” she says. B eginning in 1953, the Knight Library started the O regon N ew spaper Program in association with Oregon Newspaper P u b lish ers A sso ciatio n to m ic r o f ilm a ll o f Oregon’s newspapers for preservation.

The pies are $12 each this year. The group offers many varieties to choose from, including apple, cherry, pecan, mixed berry, pum pkin, peach, banana cream , coconut cream and Oreo pie. The group will stop taking orders on Nov. 20 or when they get orders for 60 pies, whichever comes first. The pies will be made Nov. 22-26. The FBLA members can deliver, or people can pick up pies at Heppner High School on Tuesday and Wednesday, Nov. 26- 27, by 10 a.m. The group says they will freeze certain pies so they can be cooked at home, except for pecan and pumpkin pies, which will be made and baked closer to Thanksgiving. The cream pies will be delivered w ithout whipped cream topping due to the tendency of the whipped cream to separate from the pie. Anyone interested in purchasing pies is asked to call the school at 541-676- 9138 and ask for Jeannie Collins with questions or to place an order.
