County circuit court users in Cleveland County, Arkansas will be able to navigate the court system with the help of self-serve kiosks donated by the Arkansas Access to Justice Foundation, according to a press release.

Arkansans can use the kiosks to access court records, print exhibits, find court forms and fact sheets, and apply for legal aid.

Video explainers and FAQs are also available to make legal concepts easier to understand.

The public can access these resources at the clerk's office or by visiting ARCourtKiosk.org.

The Cleveland County Circuit Court kiosk is a part of a statewide program called AR Courthouse Kiosks, a partnership between the Arkansas Access to Justice Foundation, the Court Improvement Program and the Administrative Office of the Courts.

As part of this program, 112 kiosks will be installed in the coming months, with kiosks made available to every circuit court and select district courts. The program's goal is to have at least one kiosk available in every county.
