Interested in searching for your ancestors? Join us for our All Things Relative: Finding Family at the Library, as we explore a different genealogy topic with Historian and Librarian Kathy Nielsen.  This month’s topic will be exploring how to get organized. What do we do with all of our family trees, documents, photos, and random notes?  Join Kathy Nielsen as she shares some ideas about how to organize your genealogy treasures.  We will look at online databases, genealogy software, our computer files, our paper documents and an application called Evernote.
