Collection News
Oregon Nikkei Legacy Center has a wealth of resources documenting Japanese American history and culture. Our collections are utilized by professional researchers, college students, and the National History Day participants to further their understanding of the Japanese American experience. Advance request to research the Legacy Center collections is required. Permanent Collection Oregon Nikkei Legacy Center houses original manuscripts, government documents and publications, as well as historical and contemporary artifacts. Hundreds of photographs are housed in our institutional archives and digital database. Oral histories are also in the archives and are available on both video and audio tapes. Resource Library The Legacy Center maintains a library for on-site research. Reference staff are available to assist with research. Advance notice to utilize the library is requested and recommended.
The story of Japanese Americans is one that must be told and retold by each generation. Do you have old photos taken in the internment camps? Art, poetry, or writing created by the Issei? The Legacy Center collects Nikkei artifacts and historical documents for our exhibits and presentations. Please help us preserve our past. Search through your old drawers and family albums. We would like to borrow them long enough to make copies. The original print will be returned to you, unless you wish to donate it for our collection. For each photo, please note: We greatly appreciate your help in this effort. For more information or to donate an item to our collection, please contact the Oregon Nikkei Legacy Center:
