HOW TO USE THE ARKANSAS GAZETTE INDEX 

The Arkansas Gazette Index cons is ts of brief summari zi ng statements 

of the news of Arkansas as it was published in the final edition of the 

Arkansas Gazette. Only those articles dealing with Arkansas people, places 

and events are considered for inclusion. Material not considered useful 

for future reference is omitted. Routine articles reporting on sports, 

social events and business activities are mitted. 

HEAD1 NGS 

Subject headings (entries) are the main type of entry and are used when 

possible. Names of prominent persons and of firms and organizations are used 

as entries, but most names are cross-referenced to subJects. 

A1 1 

sub Ject headings (entries) are arranged alphabetical iy, word-by-word. 

Example: 

Old Washington 

Ol dham 

Use of commas ln subject headings result in an unusual filing system since 

the computer considers them when arranging entries that are identical up to 

the comma. 

Example: 

Henderson Farms 

Henderson State University 

Henderson, John-Davi d 

Henderson, Shannon E 1 i zabe th 

Abbreviations used as subject headings are arranged alphabetically as If 

they we re words . 

Example : Payne 

PCBs 

Pea Ridge 

Cross references are arranged in alphabetical order and are l isted before 

sumaries of articles under that same heading. 

LOCATl ON SYMBOLS 

Each summary is fol lowed by the month, day, year, page and column number 

where the article appeared in the Final ( ~ ty) i edi tion of the Arkansas Gazette. 

Reference from a person's name to a subject does not indicate if the 

named person is directly involved or is merely commenting on the topic. 

In all cases, the article should be read for clarification of this point.
