Activity continues at the State Agency Databases Across the Fifty States project. See a blow by blow list of changes from the previous seven days at http://tinyurl.com/statedbs. Some highlights from this week are:
DATABASES ADDED
Arkansas
Licensed Athletic Trainer Search – Searchable database of licensed athletic trainers, by first name and last name.
Connecticut
Arthropod (i.e. bugs) Management Database – Intended for commercial plant growers, this database “allows you to search for insects and mites that are pests on trees, shrubs and other plants in the landscape, the nursery or Christmas tree farm.” Searchable by damage type, pest and plant. One of each, plus a “profession” must be selected to ensure a successful search.
Louisiana
Confederate Pension Applications Index Database – This database consists of alphabetically arranged pensions granted from 1898 for veterans and widows. The pensions may include service information, occupation, place of residence, and number of children. The collection also contains a few applications for individuals other than veterans or widows that were not granted.
This particular database was also added to our Official Records Databases page.
South Carolina
Orders – The database of Orders of the Public Service Commission is being expanded to cover orders and rate requests from 1990 to present. Searches can be by keyword, with filtering by industry.
Washington

DATABASES REMOVED
