Course postponment

Due to a death in the family of one of our presenters the old photographs course scheduled for 23 June has been postponed. It will be rescheduled later in the year. We apolofise for the inconvenience.

Access to FamilySearch virtual films at Cook

Visitors to the Library now have access to nearly all digital collections on the FamilySearch website – if a record shows as only being viewable at a Family History Library or Affiliate Library that means you can view it at the Library. Access is immediate and you can accomplish a lot in a short time. Moreover, you do not have to pay to get the film posted from FamilySearch. Thank you FamilySearch for setting up this great service!
