“Repositories: Roaming the Stacks: Looking to the Library to help fills holes” with Elaine Brinsko

Join Elaine Brinsko for “Repositories: Roaming the Stacks: Looking to the Library to help fills holes.”
Libraries are a great resource with untapped potential for genealogists, providing rare materials, online databases, and mixed media to fill in the holes in our research. This presentation will focus on different types of libraries for researchers to use, how to navigate through their collections, and what types of materials are available.

The meeting will begin at 7:00 PM on Sept. 16, 2024. This meeting will be held in person at Christ Episcopal Church and as a virtual meeting via Zoom.
