This is especially helpful if you are just getting started. Bring your research notes and we will search the internet to extend your family history. This begins at 12:00 in the Local History Room and adjacent reading room on the second floor and will continue until 4:00 pm. Assistance will be on a first-come, first-served basis. A volunteer will also be in the adjacent Genealogy Center to introduce you to the print collection and other resources available in the library. Invite your interested friends to come along with you.
