Talk:1918 Spanish flu quarantine in Portland, Oregon

Discrepancy in Oregonian editions
I just finished an article on Harriet Lawrence for our editathon at OSU 3/19/2021. She developed the first serum, which treated the bacterial infection side issues, but since this page focuses so much on the quarantine itself I wanted to see how you felt about a "treatment" section at the bottom.Osu.archivist.tem (talk) 15:14, 10 March 2021 (UTC)

I'm curious how you accessed the Oregonian article titled "'Flu' Serious at Coos Bay" (currently ref 11). Did you access it through Multnomah County Library's NewsBank database? The reason I ask is that there appears to be a discrepancy between MLC's database and the University of Oregon's Historic Oregon Newspapers website. In the NewsBank database provided by Multnomah County Library, the article appears on page 4 of the December 13, 1918 issue (which is what we cite in our article); however, UO's scan shows that the article was printed on page 7 of the Oregonian December 12, 1918 issue. The librarians I spoke to at Central Library said NewsBank probably scanned a different edition of The Morning Oregonian than that used by the University of Oregon, and I just wanted to confirm that you retrieved the article via NewsBank.

 * I went ahead and aligned the Oregonian article's publication info with the University of Oregon scan. I'm still hazy on why there was a discrepancy to begin with, but I think it's better to go with the UO version for consistency with the other citations.
