52 Weeks to Better Genealogy – Challenge 36 – Family History Library Catalog

52 Weeks To Better Genealogy

52 Weeks To Better Genealogy – Challenge 36

Check out the Family History Library catalog. In terms of its library collections, there are no rivals. From this web page, you can search by place, surname, keyword, title, film/fiche, author, subject, and call number. Try all of them. Don’t do actual research with this exercise. Instead just click links and see all the catalog has to offer. Many of these items can be rented for a small fee and viewed at your local Family History Center. You do not have to be a member of the LDS Church to utilize this service. If you write a genealogy blog, tell readers what you found during this exercise, or describe the types of materials you’ve received through this genealogy tool.

This challenge runs from Saturday, 4 September 2010 through Friday, 10 September 2010.

    You can start with the current one or you can start at the beginning or jump around – not many rules here! To make sure I “tag” your posts, please include “52 Weeks to Better Genealogy” or “52 Weeks” in your post title.

    Cheers
