Preserving the Past for the Future

About This Grant

Preserving the Past for the Future: Digitizing Discovered Collections adds four free and publicly available digital collections to Southern Oregon University’s digital archives. These collections, Historic Logging Photos, Oregon Pear Box Labels, SmokeJumper Images, and Historic Ashland Photos constitute significant content that deserves to be available online for and used by the citizens of Oregon rather than hidden away in back rooms and cabinets. Digitized material will be available through SOU’s Southern Oregon Digital Archives: http://soda.sou.edu. Promotional material and strategies make the collections available to complement and extend education and regional public programming.
