March's Magazine of the Month is "Internet Genealogy"

Carnegie-Stout's magazine of the month for March is Internet Genealogy. This magazine provides information about and reviews of online resources for genealogical research. In addition to pieces on technology, there are articles about the unexpected finds and challenges faced by individual genealogists. We also subscribe to Family Chronicle, another genealogy focused magazine by the publishers of Internet Genealogy.

In addition to Carnegie-Stout's collection of local newspapers on microfilm and corresponding obituary index, local genealogists will be happy know that we provide access to HeritageQuest Online and the library edition of Ancestry.com (available only within the library). You may also be interested in our print collection of local history and genealogy titles found near the Reference Desk.

Anyone interested in learning more about genealogical research is invited to attend the ongoing series of instructional sessions by the Dubuque Family History Center. The next class will be tonight (March 1st) from 7-8:30 p.m. with four more sessions following on March 8th, March 15th, March 29th, and April 5th. For more information, please contact the Reference Desk.
