Podcasts at Cedar Mill

Cedar Mill Community Library is excited to provide audio podcasts for and about our community. Subscribe via RSS to hear when new episodes are available. We have a variety of audio programs that you can access through this website:

  • Founders' Oral History - Travel back in time to the early days of the library’s founding. Listen as these community activists share their memories of the grassroots movement that resulted in today’s Cedar Mill Community Library.
  • Community Oral History - In 2009, in honor of Oregon's sesquicentennial, we recorded 14 interviews with local immigrants and descendents of immigrants to illustrate the importance of immigration on our community. More interviews were added in 2011. This Oral History Project was done with the help of Matt Hiefield and his history students at Sunset High School. More information at CMCL's website.
  • Teen Book Discussions - Working with Stoller Middle School teachers, John Wickham and Catherine Geddry-Pierce, we have recorded several book discussions with local middle school students about popular books they have read. Learn more about this project and listen to more audio recordings on our teen page.

Oral History 2009 Eva-Marie Muecke

Eva-Marie Muecke left her small village in West Germany at the age of 17 to enter the hotel business, which eventually brought her to California where she started her college career.  She now teaches biology and zoology.  In February and March of 2009, local immigrants or descendants of local immigrants met with Sunset High School students to discuss what it is like to be an immigrant in Oregon.  We recorded these discussions and have posted them for the public to listen to.
