Beyond the Online Basics: A Genealogical Guide to Digital Collections
 |
| Dave Obee |
Please join us at 7:30 pm on Tuesday, March 4th EST via Zoom as we host one of our favourite speakers, Dave Obee. Everyone is welcome and let your friends know too.
There are billions of scanned pages on the Internet -- a collection that few physical libraries could match. The problem is that many pages relevant to your research can be difficult to track down, since they are not on the usual genealogy websites. This session provides ideas on how to find the documents that will help you learn more about your families, or the local histories of the areas where they lived.
