Computers offer access to research websites such as Ancestry.com. Local newspapers on microfilm are stored in the room and will soon be available in digital format.
Our responsibility is to organize and preserve items that have been donated to the library that are both genealogical and historical to our community and surrounding areas. Wouldn’t it be interesting to hear about the preservation and digitization project we’re working on with the Lake County Library System?
