My mentor in blogging, Alex Yvonnou, has yet again hit the bull’s eye with his notary’s resource page.
You won't believe all the great links you will find there.
Imitation is the best form of flattery, Alex. A future blog entry will be The Texas Notary Publisher's List of Notary Resources.
And, the list will probably begin like this:
1) Alex's List of Notary Resources, plus...
2) Free monthly notary newsletters - American Association of Notaries
3) Notary Locator - AAN's Directory
4) Find your Notary Public Administrator's Contact Information - NASS.org
For the linking impaired-- The links used in this entry follow.

The laws that guide notaries in at least ten states may be affected significantly in July at a conference meeting in Chicago.

Preparing Your Business for Disaster
Whether as a result of weather, utility disruption, or a manmade emergency, disaster and the need for evacuation can strike at any time and in any place. No notary’s business is immune to disruption due to catastrophic events. To properly prepare for such emergencies and/or the need for evacuation, notaries should determine what is necessary to resume business operations and make plans to protect it.

Apostille FAQs

Below are the questions we have identified to be common points of confusion to notaries regarding the use and issuance of apostilles. Be sure to read the last question and its answer. What you learn may be very surprising!

However, it was not long before she encountered a serious problem. The kind of information she was repeatedly asked to provide to prospective signing service clients was what Debbie considered highly sensitive information. Almost every signing service she solicited work from required her to provide a copy of her state driver’s license and a copy of her Social Security card.
