'''''Research Tip: When looking for additional resources, remember to use Catalog to find insightful books and documents. After logging in to FamilySearch, select the Search tab, then find and click on Catalog in the drop down list. There are six ways to search; Titles, Author, Place, Surname, Keyword, and Call Number. After selecting one of the six methods to search you then select one of the three ways to search.  For example use "Any", "Online", or "FamilySearch Library" [where the books are physically located]. For further assistance please reach out to one of our volunteers or staff members here at the Center.'''''
