“Resources for Researchers: Today and Tomorrow” October 11, 2017 presented by Curt B. Witcher – Free Educational Genealogy Program

Hear about new materials, print, and virtual, in The Genealogy Center as well as shifting strategies for enhancing access to family and local history resources wherever they may be. Knowing about the resources available and how to access them will be the focus.

Curt B. Witcher is the Senior Manager of Special Collections at the Allen County Public Library and in that capacity manages the widely acclaimed Genealogy Center as well as the Lincoln Financial Foundation Collection of Abraham Lincoln related research materials. He is in his thirty-eighth year with ACPL. In 2016, the Indiana Lieutenant governor presented Curt with the Hoosier Hospitality Award and the Dallas Genealogical Society awarded him the Lloyd DeWitt Bockstruck Distinguished Service Award for outstanding contributions to the genealogical community on a national level.

Guests are Always Welcome!

6:30 p.m. refreshments and social time the second Wednesday evening, September to May, at 7:00 p.m. is our free Genealogy Education Program in Meeting Room A at the Allen County Public Library (ACPL), 900 Library Plaza, Fort Wayne, Indiana.
