Multnomah County Oregon Digital History Archives


 


 


 




 


 


Multnomah
County's nearly 159-year history is being digitized and will appear online
within a few months. The county is in the process of converting many of the
county's 3,000 boxes of paper records and 20,000 reels of microfilm to digital
format, making them available to anyone with curiosity and an Internet
connection. The process began weeks ago, timing that happened to coincide with
National Archives Month.
