Participate in Oregon Archives Month 2011

We invite every institution involved in the collection, preservation or use of archival materials to participate in this state-wide celebration. This year's state-wide Oregon Archives Month Committee Chairperson is Diana Banning of the City of Portland Archives. If you have ideas or suggestions, please send them to diana.banning@portlandoregon.gov

"I Found it in the Archives" stories should be sent to daniel.e.cantrall@state.or.us

Institutional participation is open to everyone. Especially encouraged are those who are interested in promoting their Archives to a wider audience. We have also provided some basic resources below that provide some suggested activities for visitors, and will help you formulate a general promotional framework for the celebration of Archives Month.
