Ancestry Library Edition Genealogy Class Update

I took the Ancestry Library Edition Genealogy Class at the St. Catharines Public Library on May 11, 2017 from 2pm - 3:30pm. In this class we learned about Ancestry.com but from the Ancestry Library Edition which can be used for free at the St. Catharines Public Library which is their subscribe to Ancestry.com and it has a few difference from Ancestry.com which you would used at home with your own subscribe.

We learned how to search on Ancestry from a basic search, advanced search with exact match options, explore by location search feature, search by selecting a category or specific collection example Census Records or Birth, Marriage or Death Records, card catalogue search, how to use search filters to narrow down your search results, how to print records (when printing from the library it costs money), but if using the Ancestry Library Edition at library you have the can send the documents to yourself by email to print at home.

This video explains how to sent the documents home to yourself.
