Obituary searching is one of the many services that the reference staff of the Arkansas State Library perform for the public. We will search the Arkansas Gazette and the Arkansas Democrat-Gazette for patrons who provide us with a name and date of death. The search covers approximately one week following the provided date.
The Arkanas Gazette archives go back to 1889 on microfilm, and the Democrat-Gazette records are available through an online subscription from 1984 to the present.
Requests can be made in person, over the phone, and through the Ask A Librarian form on our website.
