In addition to providing researchers with helpful databases, the Library partners with the African-American Genealogical Society to offer monthly programs on a variety of interesting topics for beginning or seasoned genealogists. All programs are held at Main Library and begin with a brief business meeting of the AAGS. No registration is required. From 9:30 am to 1 pm Saturday, July 23, Dr. Deborah Abbott of the African- American Genealogical Society will discuss Conferences, Workshops and Seminars: The Road to Successful Genealogy. She will explain why genealogy conferences are invaluable to a beginner as well as the advanced researcher, and explain the types of lectures presented and the value of networking with fellow genealogists. From 7 to 8:30 pm Tuesday, September 6, The Ohio Genealogical Society joins the AAGS in presenting Researching Funeral Home Records: Looking for the Dead. Funeral home records are a valuable, yet often underutilized, resource for genealogists and family historians trying to identify a date of death for ancestors or the names of other relatives. Learn what the records contain and how they vary by location and time period. Learn about researching websites, archives, manuscript collections, libraries, and other sources that may hold funeral home records. From 9:30 am to 1 pm Saturday, September 24, the African-American Genealogical Society will present a Film Screening & Discussion: Black Indians: An American Story.
