Genealogy Half-Day Schools
IARC has developed a customised half-day school series for those with a keen interest in genealogy. Our first series is entitled ‘An Introduction to Genealogy’ and will familiarise you all the basic sources needed to begin your ancestry research. It is for those at beginner's level.
Participants will be introduced family history sources available online. You will become familiar with concepts of online searching, source retrieval, and how to download material. During each session participants will also be given the opportunity to apply the skills learned using IARC’s computer facilities and subscriptions.
