Today, I returned to work on the Campus Photographs and I am now on photo WP0892. For a short period, I helped Cherri Miles to find photographs of the Collins Legal Center for the upcoming celebration in honor of Richard Breen/Brene (?). She didn't find any photos of him, but I did send her some jpegs of Collins Legal Center that she requested.

I also found a really interesting collection of 39 photographs of Salem and Willamette between 1800 and 1940. They were all apparently kept in the same folder and they seem to have been worked on by some other archivists at some point, as they are all captioned. One caption might give away the time period when the photos were worked on - for a photo of the Reed Opera House, the caption says "This is Reed's Opera house in 1888. It is now Miller's Dept Store." So I need to research and find out when the Reed Opera House was known as Miller's Department Store. By the way, this is WP0871.
