GETTING STARTED WITH GENEALOGY CLASS AND HANDS-ON WORKSHOP AT MARLBORO LIBRARY

 

GETTING STARTED WITH GENEALOGY: Explore your family tree at the Marlboro Library on Saturday, January 23rd.  From 11-12pm, join us for an introductory class that will explain the first steps in conducting your own research and the basics of using AncestryLibrary.com, which is available in the Library. No registration required, walk-ins welcome.

 

HANDS-ON WORKSHOP (REGISTRATION REQUIRED. CLICK HERE): Then, from 12:30-2:00 pm, registered patrons can join us for a hands-on workshop, consisting of a specially set up research space with laptops and other local history materials. Registered patrons will explore databases and web sites like Ancestrylibrary.com, Family Search and more.  Library staff will be on hand to help with any questions or problems, as well as one of our local history researchers to assist with anyone interested in documents, photos, maps, books and more found in our local history collection.

 

Bring your library card and your family research as far back as you know (even if it’s just your grandparents) and we will help you expand your search.  If you would like to reserve one of our six available laptops for the workshop, be sure to register.   If you have your own laptop, feel free to join us without registering. Registration for the hands-on workshop is required.
