Research from Family History Centers to New FamilySearch

The enormous genealogical collection available on New FamilySearch and at Family History Centers is a veritable goldmine for family historians. The rapid development by the Family History Library of a variety of brand new websites associated with New FamilySearch to facilitate research online is explored in this course.

We describe the most important genealogical aids and derivative sources in order to efficiently plan and organize your research. You will learn how to access and efficiently utilize the millions of original sources available in microform at a Family History Center in your locality so you may obtain primary information and documentation. We explain the contents of online databases available free at Family History Centers through their new Portal, and other indexes and original records to be found uniquely at Family History Centers. New FamilySearch is explored as are many other new Latter-day Saints websites such as Record Search Pilot, FamilySearch Labs, FamilySearch Beta, the fantastic Wiki and many others.
