The University of Oregon and Oregon State University libraries have
collaborated to produce an online collection of maps selected from our
two print collections.  These maps were chosen to highlight the history
of state, and include all of the ‘official’ State Highway Maps produced
since 1916.  This collection was built both as a pilot ContentDM
collaboration between the two institutions as well as a birthday present
to the state for its sesquicentennial.

The UO portion of the collection is each of our 'official state highway
maps' since 1916.  I shamelessly stole the idea from Nevada (thank you
Linda Newman!).
