HOW TO USE THE <strong>ARKANSAS</strong> <strong>GAZETTE</strong> <strong>INDEX</strong><br />

The <strong>Arkansas</strong> Gazette Index consists of brief summarizing statements<br />

of the news of <strong>Arkansas</strong> as it was published in the final edition of<br />

the <strong>Arkansas</strong> Gazette. Only those articles dealing with <strong>Arkansas</strong><br />

people, places and events are considered for inclusion. Material<br />

not considered useful for future reference is omitted. Routine<br />

articles reporting on sports , social events and business activities<br />

are omitted.<br />

HEADINGS<br />

Subject headings<br />

(entries) are the main type of entry and are used<br />

when possible. Names of prominent persons and of firms and<br />

organizations are used as entries, but most names are crossref<br />

erenced to subjects.<br />

All subject headings (entries) are arranged alphabetically, wordby-word.<br />

Example:<br />

Old Washington<br />

Oldham<br />

Use of commas in subject headings result in an unusual filing<br />

system since the computer considers them when arranging entries<br />

that are identical up to the comma.<br />

Example: Harris, Summer Michelle<br />

Henderson Farms<br />

Henderson State University<br />

Henderson, John David<br />

Henderson, Shannon Elizabeth<br />

Abbreviations used s subject headings are arranged alphabetically<br />

as if they were words.<br />

Example:<br />

Payne<br />

PCBs<br />

Pea Ridge<br />

cross references are arranged in alphabetical order and are listed<br />

before summaries of articles under that same heading.<br />

LOCATION SYMBOLS<br />

Each summary is followed by the month, day, year, page and column<br />

number where the article appeared in the Final (City) edition of<br />

the <strong>Arkansas</strong> Gazette.<br />

Reference from a person's name to a subject<br />

the named person is directly involved or is<br />

the topic. In all cases, the article<br />

clarification of this point.<br />

does not indicate if<br />

merely commenting on<br />
