The Alaska Criminal History and Your Own Copy
Alaska is one of the states that lets anyone look up another person's statewide criminal history: name-based conviction records are open to anyone who asks, through the Alaska Department of Public Safety. The result is the repository record, what agencies reported to the state, which is wider than one borough's court index but can lag it.
To see your own record, the route is a fingerprint-based or name-based request to the Department of Public Safety. The state page SearchSystems verified for it is at dps.alaska.gov/statewide/background-checks.
