=== Obtaining Periodicals ===
 
Copies of periodicals are available from the local societies that publish them. Major archives with genealogical collections will have copies of many periodicals, particularly those representing the area they serve. The Periodical Source Index, or PERSI, is the largest subject index to genealogy and local history periodical articles in the world. PERSI is available online and is especially useful because it refers to countless items published in thousands of family history periodicals worldwide. Search PERSI:<br>
*'''[https://www.genealogycenter.info/persi/ PERiodical Source Index (PERSI)]''' at Allen County Public Library; index; More information: [[Periodical Source Index (PERSI)|Periodical Source Index (PERSI)]]<br>
Once you locate an article in a periodical, check the [https://www.familysearch.org/search/catalog FamilySearch Catalog] and regional or local libraries for available copies.
The FamilySearch Library has collected many periodicals, with some available in digital format and accessible online. Florida periodicals may be found in the FamilySearch Catalog with a Place and Subject search, as found here: [https://www.familysearch.org/search/catalog/results?count=20&placeId=355&query=%2Bplace%3A%22United%20States%2C%20Florida%22%20%2Bsubject%3APeriodicals Florida-Periodicals]. They can also be found by using:
*'''Place''' Search of the country, state/province, and county
*'''Title''' Search of the periodical
*'''Keyword''' Search for the publishing society name.<br>
<br>
Also find Periodical resources available at other libraries via [https://www.worldcat.org/ WorldCat]. As with the FamilySearch Catalog search, search WorldCat using society names, locality names, and periodical title names.
