Obituary Requests
The Naples Regional Library processes requests for copies of obituaries and death notices from our microfilm collection of Naples area newspapers. The microfilm covers the years of 1927-36 and 1947-2007 (some years are partial). If the death occurred during the years 1927 through 2007, excluding the years for which no microfilm is available, a search may be performed using our online Obituary Index(XLSX, 2MB).
Obituary requests are researched free of charge, and one hard copy of the obituary can be made for you free of charge. Please allow one week processing time per subject. Requests may be submitted via email to Obits@collier.gov. To request a hard copy via postal mail, we ask that you provide us with a self-addressed, stamped envelope, mailed to the Reference Department.

SWFLN Member Libraries
As a member of the Southwest Florida Library Network (SWFLN), the Collier County Public Library extends reciprocal borrowing privileges to our patrons whose accounts are in good standing. Reciprocal borrowing means that our patrons can borrow from selected libraries without being cardholders of those libraries. See the list of member libraries. Learn more by speaking to a Collier County Public Library staff member at any location.
SWFLN’s mission is to encourage interlibrary cooperation, to facilitate resource sharing, and to provide opportunities for professional growth among all types of libraries and library staff. In support of that mission, SWFLN libraries have established this reciprocal borrowing project, an interlibrary loan and delivery system, and a strong program of library technology training.
