Download or read book Genealogy written by Katherine Pennavaria and published by Rowman & Littlefield. This book was released on 2015-04-08 with total page 191 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Commercials for the largest subscription database indicate that the process of genealogy is simple—you just “plug in” what you know, and the database does the rest! Those ads might sell subscriptions, but they are misleading. Getting beyond that “low-hanging fruit” is not so easy; collecting the records and data needed to delineate a family tree accurately requires time, organization, and informed searching. Records are available from many places, and finding them is never a “one-stop shopping” experience. So how does the new researcher identify which resources meet his or her specific research needs? And how can libraries and librarians best help this new generation of genealogists? Genealogy: A Practical Guide for Librarians offers help on several levels: First, librarians can use this book to learn what resources, both print and online, their library should offer their patron base. This means not only what monographs to purchase and subscription databases to maintain, but what websites to highlight at the library’s webpage, what to include in their online tutorials, what adult education programming is appropriate. Critical assessments of print and online resources are given, including the strengths and weaknesses that librarians need to help patrons understand them. Second, both librarians and researchers can find here an in-depth discussion of the research process itself, including the best steps for a beginning researcher and search strategies for the experienced one. And third, anyone can use this book to become better informed about the phenomenon of genealogy itself and about the latest standards for online searching and research. The book includes practical advice for every public-service librarian and offers all researchers, from novice level to experienced, a clearly delineated context for the popular subject of family history research.

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Excerpt from Genealogy in the Library Although strange cases are not as numer ous as they once were, they do occasionally appear, and sometimes they amount almost to insanity. A woman called on me one day in great haste for a certified copy of some document which I could not find to exist. She said that it was the last link in her chain of evidence to prove her claim to an est-ate in England, her share of which was to be eighty million dollars. Finally she found something else which she said would do just as well; but the office of the Secretary of Stat-e was closed, and the copy must be certified somehow, so, to please her, I attached the certificate of a notary public, stamped it with my seal, and she went away perfectly satisfied. And I have got to wait for my notary's fee until she gets her eighty millions. Mr. Collins, bod-carrier, came in another day, and wanted some book that would tell him about the early kings of Ireland. Mr. Collins is one of the very few unconsciously funny Irishmen that I have ever known. He told the tale that once upon a time the kings of Ireland claimed title to the soil of Denmark, but they did not possess the land. Nevertheless, in assertion of their title, it was customary to best-ow portions of that country as wedding gifts on their sons and daughters, in the full belief that some day they would again come into actual possession. They till me I am of ryal b-lude, said Mr. Collins, and. He wanted to find his piece of Denmark. These are extraordinary cases, and not to be looked for in our every-day library work. But, perhaps, some day a portly, positive woman will come in and say, I want to find the Revolutionary record of my great-grandfather. He was a colonel in the Revolution. You find no mention ofany such colonel in the Revolutionary rolls, but you may find a corporal or a private of the name she gives you; and you ask How do you know he was a colonel? Where did you find your authority? She immediately bristles up and replies: Why, we have always been told in our family, right straight down, that he was a colonel. My father told me so when he was ninety eight years old, and I guess he wouldn't lie. And we know it is so, anyway, because we have got his gun.
