By far the most rewarding aspect of my position (which I . am most privileged to hold) is the opportunity that I and others have . to get to know our generous supporters. The University of Oregon Libraries is especially fortunate to have so many donors who have, repeatedly, made gifts to support our collections, services, students, and faculty. While most of these gifts are financial, many remarkable gifts are in kind, for example, manuscripts, photographs, music, and rare books. These collections add significantly to our breadth and status as a research library.

As a result of both kinds of extraordinary support and loyalty, the library has come very close to doubling our fundraising goal during this campaign. We have also made many friends in the process.

Along with the satisfaction that accompanies these supportive relationships comes the sense . of loss when something untimely or unfortunate happens. A long-time friend passes away too suddenly, before we can see him one more time. Another friend loses his beloved companion. Another young and talented writer and artist succumbs to a disease too early in her career. . A retired colleague’s obituary appears in the local paper.

The sadness we all feel on these occasions, however, is lightened by the memories of very gracious and generous people who have given so much, not just to the university but to many worthy causes. The magnificent central staircase in Knight Library is named after one exceptional couple who will be remembered long into the future. The manuscripts and artwork of that gifted young writer and artist are in the library’s Special Collections for generations of students to study and appreciate. Our colleague’s estate has established an endowment that will be used to improve library collections for years to come. And a bookplate in memory of a cherished companion, a dog named Chyna, honors both her and the generosity of her owner.

All these stories are referenced in this issue of Building Knowledge. The library is part of the legacy of these very special friends and donors. They have given in ways that will benefit students across disciplines and across generations. We will remember them warmly.

In the early 1980s, Tee Corinne moved to southern Oregon and became part of the numerous women’s communities in the area. She immediately experienced personal and artistic rejuvenation in her new environment. Her experiences are recorded in the excerpts on this page from a manuscript in the collection entitled “How I Came to Live in Southern Oregon.”

“Slowly, in Oregon, I reconnected with the deep levels of creativity that run in me and began producing work which pleased me. Part of the reconnection came from finding a series of supportive art and writing communities, both women’s communities and mixed.

A leisurely look at only a few photographs by Ray Atkeson (1907–1990) is all it takes to recognize the substantial talent of the former Photographer Laureate of Oregon. The photographs on these pages are drawn from more than 60,000 images in the Ray Atkeson Image Archive, on deposit in the UO Libraries’ Special Collections and University Archives.

Atkeson, who moved to Portland from the Midwest in 1929, was a pioneer in the art of color photography. His work appeared in such notable publications as National Geographic and Saturday Evening Post, and he is credited with establishing the genre of coffee-table books with the publication, in 1968, of Oregon, a collection of color images from throughout the state.

A collection of Lincoln memorabilia frames the living room of his Forest Grove bungalow, where a vintage gumball machine and a stash of pennies stand at the ready for his seventeen grandchildren, two great-grandchildren, and neighborhood kids.
