This talk will look at the art of genealogical writing with the view of either writing a full-length book or a shorter article. We will look at the Genealogical Proof Standard, numbering, documentation, and other techniques to make your written work outstanding and publishable.

John Beatty, senior librarian and chief bibliographer of The Genealogy Center where he has worked since 1984, is a Certified Genealogist with a Master’s degree in History and Library Science from the University of Michigan.
