Connie Street: Saw your note on Iowa site about the interlibrary loan on 1880 census. I am interested in trying to get census for Arkansas and Missouri. Talked to my Public Library and they were unaware of this program. Is this another Library system? Genealogy or national. Would appreciate your help.

They should check with the state historical libraries first to see if they will loan them. The census can also be rented through AGLL. It's been a long time since I've done this, but I can check locally and see what the procedure is, if you would like.
