Genealogy Books - Out of Print, Hard-To-Find
In a previous post, I noted that online research is a useful way to find books published by genealogical and historical societies. Some websites and blogs also make available collections of out of print books that they have unearthed.
One site, Genealogy Books Online, offers a fee-based subscription service to family history researchers. Subscribers may read the collection of genealogy books, family histories, and biographies online. The site’s blog provides information on additions to the collection.
Also available to family history researchers are online collections, such as the works available at Gutenberg.org, of books in the public domain.
Arizona Genealogy Custom Search Engine Is Now Available
Family history researchers should look upon search engines such as Google and Yahoo as their friends, as a valuable tool for uncovering available information about ancestry and genealogy. It is important, though, to be able to search efficiently and productively, and to use the search engines in a way that produces results that are relevant to your research.
There are many ways of fine-tuning the search process — for example, careful choice of search terms, and refining search terms as you proceed with your research. Search engines such as Google also have advanced search options, which allow researchers to limit the search to an exact phrase, to limit the search results to a particular date range, and so on.
