| Indexing | |||
| Would you like to learn how to help in the church's indexing efforts? The church is working on having all their microfilms and genealogical data digitized and indexed so they can be searchable online.

| Sources: Why they are important | |||
| Have you wondered how to use the sources section of FamilySearch? Do you understand why sources are important? Do you know how to find and organize your source box? Do you know how to cite sources correctly? This class will cover the basics of citing sources that you find by creating a record in your source box, linking the source to the applicable family member(s) in your family tree, and tagging the events to which they apply. We'll also cover the use of TreeConnect to connect sources from websites other than FamilySearch to your FamilySearch records. This class is for students who are familiar with FamilySearch and how to navigate the site; it operates on a first-come, first-served basis. You may bring your own laptop or device to work but will need to add TreeConnect to your search bar. | |||
