| Our Facility:
The library is staffed by volunteers and houses a collection of more than 30,000
volumes in addition to maps, cd's, microfiche, and microfilms which complement
other area library holdings. The facility
also serves as a meeting place for the MGS board, educational classes, various
committees, and branch organizations. The library offers a place for researchers
to talk genealogy, to hear suggestions on research problems, and to meet other
genealogists to exchange ideas. A photocopy
machine and microfilm and microfiche readers and copiers are available for patrons
use. The library is open to the public at the hours shown below. We invite you
to visit us soon. Computers are available
with Internet and WiFi access. MGS provides access to the MGS Library accounts
at Ancestry and access to Family Origins is provided thanks to Irish Genealogical
Society International. |

Volunteers - Please Help Staff your Library!
Volunteers are needed to staff the library. Duties include opening and closing
the library, answering the phone, and helping walk-in patrons find the materials
they want. New volunteers are paired with an experienced volunteer to learn the
ropes. No experience is necessary. Please consider regularly giving a few hours
each month. Check the Volunteer Calendar
below. Thanks! We can't do it without you!
