The Genealogy Center of the Allen County Public Library has launched a new website that provides easier access to the department’s online resources both for local residents and those accessing the site worldwide.
Some of the exciting features that can be accessed via the website include a number of free databases that The Genealogy Center has developed, including the African American Gateway, Family Bible Records and Our Military Heritage. The African American Gateway combines more than 1,000 links to Internet sites for African American research, coupled with bibliographic information on African American Sources in The Genealogy Center’s collection. The Family Bible Records site features digitized images of bible records that patrons have allowed the Center to scan and upload. These have been transcribed and are searchable. Our Military Heritage is a cornucopia of digitized images of military records and photographs from the Colonial era to the current war in Afghanistan. The Center also has an ever-growing collection of state-specific databases available free for patrons, with a heavy concentration of Allen County information.
Ask a Librarian is a popular feature of the Allen County Public Library’s website as a whole. Now patrons can ask a genealogy librarian their reference questions directly from The Genealogy Center’s website. The site also features direct links to the book and microtext catalogs and to the Center’s orientation video so that visitors from the local area and beyond can plan their research visits and make the most efficient use of their time once at the Center.
The Genealogy Center’s website is the launchpad to a number of other resources, including full-text books that have been digitized by Internet Archives, the Center’s Pathfinders to various areas of research, and the Community Album, a collection of historical photographs for the surrounding area.
The Genealogy Center offers a wide variety of programming throughout the year. The website is the place to find out all of the details about upcoming class opportunities. Additional Genealogy Center news is available through the Center’s blog, Facebook page and by subscribing to the department E-Zine, all accessed through convenient links from the new website.
