Around the O article highlights new, diverse papers coming to Historic Oregon Newspapers website

An article highlighting ODNP work was recently published in AroundtheO. Thank you to Jason Stone in University Communications for the article titled:

New collection helps preserve the legacy of a civil rights trailblazer.

This article discusses the six new titles coming to ODNP, including the Advocate, a Portland-based, black-owned newspaper edited by the renowned civil rights activist, Beatrice Morrow Cannady. The Advocate is the first of the new titles available on the Historic Oregon Newspapers site— that’s nearly 3,000 pages of journalism from a leading African-American newspaper!

We are very grateful for the anonymous donation that is making the addition of these six new, diverse titles possible.
