>From their article: “Oregon Index Online (
https://digital.osl.state.or.us/islandora/object/osl:or_index ) is a
resource for discovering information about the news, events, and people who
shaped Oregon. It builds on the decades of work that went into creating the
physical Oregon Index. This article reviews the methods library staff took
to digitize and process nearly 800,000 cards to make the Oregon Index
available online."
