WWW.browardlibrary.org. When the site comes up click on "Click Here To Enter". This will bring you to "ask a librarian" On the right side of the page click "get help from a librarian in real time" There are three choices as to how to ask a question. Which ever way you choose you can ask if they will do a look-up for a death/obit notice in the newspaper. Give all the info you have:full name, exact date of death, county of death (Broward). Also ask if they charge a fee for this service. I have done this with libraries all over the country and have never been told the service is not available. Sometimes a fee is charged: sometimes you prepay, other times you receive a bill in the mail. Sometimes the service is free. Let me know if you are successful with this. Many people here will not go to the library to do look-ups. The library is in the center of town, the parking is extremely expensive, then you might have to wait on a busy day for a microfilm reader, it can be a time consuming job to go through the microfilms, etc. Carol-Anne
