the Oregon Genealogical Society Research Library. Is there someone out
there who knows what, generally speaking, this library has in its collection
versus the Oregon Historical Society Research Library and the Genealogy
Forum? Are there other places to research around
Oregon?<o:p></o:p></SPAN></FONT></P></FONT></BLOCKQUOTE></DIV>

<DIV>Oregon Genealogical Society was founded in Eugene, Oregon in 1962 and has
been going </DIV>
<DIV>strong ever since. It is a membership society with a great research library
open at no charge</DIV>
<DIV>to members and a small donation for non-members.</DIV>
<DIV> </DIV>
<DIV>Currently the library houses over 8,000 books as well as periodicals from
every state in the union.</DIV>
<DIV>Books also cover all states and many foreign countries. There is a room
dedicated to Oregon</DIV>
<DIV>research with information of a genealogical nature on every county in
Oregon. There is also a</DIV>
<DIV>good collection of microfilm and microfiche as well as computers and
CD-ROMs. There is no</DIV>
<DIV>internet access since that is available at a good LDS library also in
Eugene.</DIV>

<DIV>As far as other libraries around Oregon, I will let each library toot their
own horn.</DIV>
