The Mechanics of Citations on May 4th

"The Mechanics of Citations" 

will be a workshop format, so please bring items that need citations. We will cover what information is needed to write a citation for you, 

or someone else to find the object. 

If you have a electronic device bring it. If no genealogy software on the device, download the free Roots Magic or other program and add a few names and bring the items you want sited for these names. 

This will NOT cover evaluation of the citations. Evaluation is a whole different class. This will be the basic mechanical aspects.

Come early and research, 

some of us will be there by 1p.m. when the library opens.

What did you miss from Sunday's Meeting? Check it out!

Vicki led a discussion of the Women of WWII. We had several great displays and a costume contest.

We won! 

I had Victory Curls in my hair and I had on a hat that Jane Mansfield wore late in the 1940s. 

Brian had on the Zoot Suit.

Woah! haha. 

Thanks for leading this class Vicki.
