Description
The Portland City Archives are home to a paper trail capturing every major and minor movement of our city’s history, from mayoral memos to hand-drawn maps. They like to say they have the receipts for everything the city has ever done, in public or private. Today we're talking with City Archivist Madeline Moya about what’s inside this archive, and how it helps hold local government accountable.
