About Arkansas Phone Directory

Phone numbers for Arkansas live across a dozen different places - the state employee directory, agency contact pages, the education department's school personnel directory, university and library directories, every utility company, plus the area-code references maintained by NANPA and the FCC. Tracking down the right number usually means bouncing between websites. We built this site so you can land on the right directory, area-code reference, or hotline without hunting through five other sites first.

Why We Built This Site

Arkansas publishes phone information across many separate offices. The State Directory and State Employee Directory on Arkansas.gov cover state agencies and their staff. The Department of Education runs its own school personnel directory for every district. University directories at Fayetteville and Pine Bluff expose thousands of faculty and staff. The State Library lists every public library branch. Public-safety lines split between 911, 988, 211, the State Police troops, and the DHS hotlines. Add 75 counties with their own clerks and sheriffs, plus the FCC and NANPA references for area codes, and the picture gets crowded fast. We pull together the lookup tools, contact methods, and reference data for each of these in one place.

What You Will Find Here

  • Pages by phone topic: phone area codes, phone numbers, and phone codes
  • Statewide directory contacts: state agencies, county government routes, K-12 districts, universities, public libraries, major utilities, public safety
  • Directory walkthroughs: how to use the Arkansas State Employee Directory, how to navigate the school personnel directory, how to reverse-lookup an unknown caller
  • Phone numbering reference: the four area codes serving Arkansas, local exchange (NXX) prefixes, N11 service codes (211 / 811 / 911 / 988), vertical service codes, and toll-free prefixes

What We Cannot Do

This is a privately run reference site. We have no connection to any Arkansas state agency, city or county office, school district, utility, telecommunications carrier, or directory operator. There are real limits to what we can help with:

  • We cannot place calls on your behalf or connect you to a department
  • We cannot change anyone's directory listing, add a number, or remove a listing
  • We cannot verify the identity of someone who called you
  • We cannot give legal advice or explain how a specific scam call applies to your situation
  • We cannot guarantee that every phone number, area code, or directory link on this site is current right now

Only the originating office can confirm a current phone number or change a listing. For emergencies, dial 911. For a mental-health or suicidal crisis, dial 988.
