About Oregon Maps The University of Oregon Libraries and the Oregon State University Libraries present the Oregon Maps online collection in celebration of Oregon's sesquecentennial.

As European settlers populated Oregon, Western traditions of cartography came as well.

Maps are not simple representations of the world.
