About our program:  Those brick-and-mortar buildings that we call libraries, archives, courthouses, genealogical societies, historical societies and museums are all around us. They hold the records that we are searching for. Do you know how to use these repositories for the utmost benefit to your research? This presentation will show the genealogist some Do’s and Don’ts to help make the most of a visit to any library or archive.

Everyone is welcome—we hope you will join us.
