Ancestry Library Edition available

ProQuest has partnered with MyFamily.com to create Ancestry® Library Edition, one of the most important genealogical collections available today. It has unparalleled coverage of the United States and the United Kingdom, including census, vital, church, court, and immigration records, as well as record collections from Canada and other areas. This collection, with thousands of databases and billions of names, is essential to having a broad genealogy collection, and its valuable content is a strong complement to HeritageQuest™ Online.

Ancestry Library Edition makes family research easy for beginners while still providing in-depth tools for even the most advanced genealogists. Recent search enhancements offer intuitive content organization, image enhancing and simplified on-screen navigation. Plus, a new Enhanced Viewer allows nearly all content to be viewed through this one interface.

Ancestry Library Edition also allows access anywhere within the library system, to any number of patrons. There are no simultaneous user restrictions. It’s a resource that both the beginner and the advanced researcher can use again and again to explore history, and their own family’s history.

Kid Bits

The next story time will be Tuesday, June 23, at 10 a.m. Be sure to join “Miss Patty” for Kid Bits. All pre-school age children and their parents or caregivers are invited to attend. The library’s Community Room is the location of the story time which includes music, movement, finger plays, crafts and best of all the reading of some great books by the children’s librarian.
