52 Weeks – Challenge 6 – Online Databases

52 Weeks To Better Genealogy

52 Weeks To Better Genealogy – Challenge 6

Online databases at your public library. Search your library’s web site and see if your card grants you access to online databases. Libraries (even small ones) often have wonderful online tools including genealogy databases, historical newspapers and more! Take some time and play with these little perks that come with a library card. You just may get some help in your own genealogy research and gain some free research tools to boot. If you don’t know how to access online library databases or you’re not sure if your branch has them, ask a librarian for guidance. If you have a blog, discuss which databases (if any) to which your library subscribes.

This challenge runs from Saturday, 6 February 2010 through Friday, 12 February 2010.
