The
Nevada State
Library has a web site page just for
us family historians called
Genealogy Research Resources. This
page has links to other sites that include online databases. I was
surprised to learn that one of the obituary sites will actually send
obituaries via email. There are several online indexes to assist you. The
library will send materials out of state on
Interlibrary
Loan to libraries that adhere to the National Interlibrary Loan Code.
