Completion of the Kent Anderson Collection

The OHSU Library is pleased to announce the completion of digital images from the Kent Anderson Collection into our Campus Collection and Beauty of the Pacific Northwest Collection.

Kent Anderson, OHSU Fire Suppression Systems Technician and freelance photographer, has generously donated nearly 1700 images to the OHSU Digital Resources Library. To view all the images taken by Mr. Anderson visit: http://tinyurl.com/3jbeo5y.

Mr. Anderson’s images in the Campus Collection span the University’s recent history, from 2005-present, and include images from helicopters to snow days, festivals to the construction of new buildings, and of course, the virtual photo-documentation of the building of the Portland Aerial Tram. With Kent’s access to all the nooks and crannies around campus, we also have great images of sculpture around campus, stylized views and angles of building architecture and pictures of campus at sunrise.

In the Beauty of the Pacific Northwest Collection, views of Mount Hood and the City of Portland will add gorgeous vistas to your presentations.

For high resolution versions of these images or for further questions about the OHSU Digital Resources Library, please contact (Ms.) Friday Valentine, Cataloging & Metadata Librarian (valentif@ohsu.edu/503-494-0883).
