In the Welcome Center the Genealogy Club has two resource rooms. The Lab has six computer work stations plus a printer/copier.
The Library houses our book collection, two additional computers and two scanners.
Use of these rooms is restricted to Genealogy Club members only.
These rooms are available any time the Welcome Center is open.
The Lab has three Windows PCs and three Macs at workstations which can be adjusted for sitting or standing. All computers have broadband internet access, with web browsers for access to online databases. Members are able to save to their external drive and/or print their finds.
