- Description:
- This is a collection of death notices from the Lansing State Republican newspaper for the years 1855 to 1872, which Forest Parke Library and Archives staff and volunteers extracted from the microfilm in 2011 and 2012, and again in 2015. Because there is no index to the Lansing State Republican, it is not known if this collection is a comprehensive representation of all death notices that appeared in those years. The notices have been grouped into one PDF file for each year and are keyword searchable. The date each notice appeared in the paper is included within the files. Some files are large and may take time to open or download. An alternative to these annual listings is an index covering the years 1855 to 1883 that was compiled by Capital Area District Libraries volunteers in the late 1990s. The accuracy and comprehensiveness of this index have not been verified. This document can be accessed <a href="http://www.cadl.org/lhonline/Death Index_web.pdf" target="_blank">here</a>.

- Description:
- This collection contains a wide range of newspapers, magazines, newsletters, and other periodically-published literature from the greater Lansing area. The materials are are a mix of general news (some specific to certain areas of Lansing or other nearby communities); industry and in-house publications; club or organization newsletters and papers; marketing and advertising magazines and newsletters; or political papers. Most are loose individual issues but some of the titles have been bound and/or are on microfilm. Some are very fragile and cannot be photocopied or scanned, but camera photography may be possible. For several titles, we only have a single issue, but for titles with a range of issues/years, there are often missing issues. See the container lists for each title for complete holdings. The collection does not include large runs of the major Lansing newspapers, such as the State Journal, which are available on microfilm or online through library or other databases. Container lists are updated as we add new titles and issues to the collection.
