This project is made possible by a grant from U.S. Institute of Museum and Library Services to the Arkansas State Library under the provisions of the Library Services and Technology Act.

The Traveler program provides free remote access for all Arkansas citizens to high-quality subscription databases from reputable publishers.  The databases contain a variety of information sources: popular magazines, newspapers and periodicals; academic and professional journals, eBook collections, and general reference and discovery sources that are suitable for online and scholarly research.  The resources selected support a variety of education and reading levels.

Chronicling America

Visit Chronicling America

Search America's historic newspaper pages from 1777-1963 or use the U.S. Newspaper Directory to find information about American newspapers published between 1690-present.  Chronicling America is sponsored jointly by the National Endowment for the Humanities and the Library of Congress.

Local History

Both Scott and Sebastian County have active historical societies.  Due to the lack of space in the library facilities to house local history and family histories, it is recommended to contact the local historical societies for local history and family history needs.
