On Thursday, Aug. 16 the Library will be hosting a sharing session and discussion about Beginning Genealogy. Barbara Schlafer is returning to facilitate this discussion on how and where to begin your genealogical journey. The discussion will be free and help provide you with some of the tools that will enable you to start finding your roots, focusing on your individual interests in genealogy, and getting started on gathering your family stories. We’ll also look into utilizing resources both physical and on the internet, and how to organize your research. Space could become limited and advanced registration is required.
As a special treat, there will be a door prize given at the end of the session: a copy of Family Tree Maker 2012, being donated by Ancestry.com. To qualify for the drawing, you must be present and pre-registered for the event.

WHERE: In the Robins Air Force Base Library, Building 905

We’re doing another Beginning Genealogy session on August 16th, which we’ll have more information on for you tomorrow.
The last session of our Summer Reading Program was yesterday and he gave our prizes and had a cupcake party.
We just wanted to thank everyone who participated and spent their Mondays this summer with us and say that we had a lot of fun…
And we hope you did too.
Don’t forget: The Summer Reading Program at the library starts on Monday, June 11 at 10 AM and will be every Monday for six weeks, ending on July 23. The program will last about an hour each Monday, and there will be storytime, crafts, and fun.
The theme this summer is Reading Is So Delicious! and it should be exciting. Registration is required and we hope that you’ll join us to cook up some fun.
Just wanted to remind everyone that we will be closed this weekend for the Memorial Day holiday.
We will be closed on Friday for the AFMC Family Day, and on Monday for Memorial Day itself, and we will be closed on the weekend in between the two.
We apologize for any inconvenience this might cause anyone, and we will reopen on Tuesday, May 29 at our normal time.
And don’t forget that our Summer Reading Program starts next month for the kids. Registration is required, and we hope to see you on Monday, June 11 at 10 AM for our first session.
Don’t forget that this weekend is the Air Show!
The gates open tomorrow and Sunday at 10 AM and the show starts at 11:15 AM each day. You can find more information at the link above.
And here’s something that’s extremely overdue with us…
We wanted to congratulate Ms. Sherriann Tilley for winning our Trivia/Survey contest!
We really enjoyed her entry, and especially wanted to thank her for coming in to pick up on her prize on her birthday and letting us wish her a happy birthday.
And we would also like to thank everyone else who entered. There were a lot of great entries that were a pleasure to read.
Whether you’re going to the Air Show or not, and of course we would strongly encourage you to do so, we hope everyone has an extremely fun and safe time.
It’s Friday the 13th!
And it’s also the end of National Library Week.
We really want to thank everybody who stopped by this past week and celebrated it with us.
