Can anyone clarify a point? If a listing is found in the CPL Necrology Index will the death record ordered from Microform.Center@cpl.org. reflect the exact same information as that found online in the CPL Necrology Index or could there be more detail forthcoming e.g. an obituary format?

My experience is that the librarian will first look in the Necrology database. If he/she finds a record there they will just print that out and send it to you. So I wouldn't bother to ask in this case. If you feel for certain that there may have been a full obituary (as opposed to just a death notice), I would specifically ask them to look for that. -- Dennis M.
