<div>Hello,</div>
<div> </div>
<div>Change is coming to the City of Portland Archives and Records Center! We are excited to finally be packing up and moving from our home in Chimney Park to our new location on the PSU campus. </div>
<div> </div>
<div>With over 30,000 boxes to inventory and move, we will be closing to the public on November 30<font size="1"><sup>th</sup></font> and if all goes according to plan, re-opening May 1<font size="1"><sup>st</sup></font>. That means no in-person appointments
or phone or email research questions answered until we reopen our doors. </div>
<div> </div>
<div>We have created a FAQ that is located on our website (<a href="http://www.portlandonline.com/auditor/index.cfm?&a=272520&c=26978"><font color="#0000FF"><u>http://www.portlandonline.com/auditor/index.cfm?&a=272520&c=26978</u></font></a>) to answer questions
about the move since we will be busy during the move and unable to answer questions directly while we are closed. As new information becomes available we will update the FAQ.</div>
<div> </div>
<div>We appreciate your flexibility and patience as we turn the page on the next chapter of the Portland Archives and Records Center. Please check our web page during the closure for additional announcements or to keep updated on our progress.</div>
<div> </div>
<div>See you in May!</div>
