The Oregon Multicultural Archives (OMA) assists in preserving the histories and sharing the stories that document Oregon's African American, Asian American, Latino/a, and Native American communities. Established in 2005, the OMA highlights multicultural collections already held in the Special Collections and Archives Research Center, serves as a digital resource linking researchers to other institutions or organizations with multicultural archival collections, and builds an archive with records that document Oregon's multicultural communities to reflect how they have contributed to the identity of the state of Oregon.
This collection was created by Natalia Fernández, curator and archivist of the Oregon Multicultural Archives. The bulk of the materials were originally in the Oregon State University Memorabilia Collection. They were removed in 2017 to create the OMCRC, with additional materials collected and added by Fernández.
Additions to the collection are expected.
This collection is open for research.
