Article and Obituary Requests

Have you been working on your family history and need to find an obituary? Or maybe there was a write-up of a family member’s basketball game in 1994, and you are trying to find it.

Whatever your newspaper needs, the Gwinnett County Public Library has you covered. We have a state-of-the-art microfilm reader that not only produces near-perfect duplications but also adjusts and clarifies newspaper images that are nearly impossible to see otherwise. What’s more, you can print out your copies, save them to your thumb drive, or email them to yourself as an attachment.

We carry the publications listed below:
