"Library Lives: Books, Borrowers and Beyond" Update
Due to the fact that I am not a world-traveller and did not realize that New Jersey is five hours ahead of Scotland, I missed the first 45 minutes of the event. But what I saw was lovely. How wonderful is technology? To sit here in New Jersey and participate in a book event in Crieff, Perthshire, Scotland!
Investigating the books that our ancestors have read is another way to help us give a full account of their lives. This series by these libraries highlight why archives truly matter.
For those of you doing Scottish family history, you will want to check out this link: https://borrowing.stir.ac.uk/documents/library-lives-suggested-resources-for-further-research/.

I am now on the email list and will share any upcoming events that they send me.
