Missing details

No mention of the Wilson Rare Book Room, which houses a collection that includes works on Oregon & the Northwest.
No mention of the remodel in the 1990s, when the collection was moved to the old State Office Building & the building was closed for extensive remodeling.
And I suspect there are other details in the years between 1913 & 1990 that could be included. -- llywrch (talk) 05:07, 8 November 2019 (UTC)[reply]
