The Arkansas History Commission (AHC) "is one of the oldest existing state agencies in 'The Natural State.' Arkansas' official state archive was created by the General Assembly in 1905. A division of the Arkansas Department of Parks and Tourism, our mission is to: keep and care for the official archives of the State of Arkansas; collect material bearing on the history of Arkansas from the earliest times; copy and edit official records and other historical material; and encourage historical work and research." NEW! 8-16-2008
The Encyclopedia of Arkansas History & Culture Project "strives to offer a definitive, comprehensive, and accurate record of the twenty-fifth state. The online version of the Encyclopedia is the first component of the Project. The online version of the Encyclopedia will be maintained and updated in perpetuity by the staff of the Butler Center for Arkansas Studies." Jann Woodard is one of the volunteers on this project. She has submitted information on Warren and the Saline River. There are a lot of great articles and photos.
