There are two genealogy librarians available to assist with research. We offer tours of our collection as well as free classes on genealogical research. You can use our online databases, schedule 30-minute appointments with a genealogy librarian or visit our Genealogy Collection to find out about your family’s roots.

The Genealogy Collection is not a circulating collection. We are happy to look-ups in our print collection and able to scan a small number numbers of pages to send over email or physical mail. We do have a small number of materials that we are able to loan out through Interlibrary Loan; but we can often save you the trouble and cost of that service by doing a scan or copy for free.
