​The Academic Library: An Untapped Resource for Family History Research
Presenter: Colleen Robledo Greene
When: November 20, 2019  7pm
Where: Yorba Linda Community Center

Academic libraries provide access to digital and physical collections that often go unnoticed by genealogists, yet are invaluable for researching U.S. and international family history.​

Some of those key materials include:
  • Academic research databases
  • Special collections and archives
  • Theses and dissertations
  • Institutional repositories
This academic librarian and college instructor will walk you through those key collections, explain the discovery tools that make finding those collections and specific materials easier, and will cover what you need to know before you go to prepare for a successful academic library research visit.
​Colleen Robledo Greene, MLIS, is a librarian, historian, college educator, and web developer. She is the Digital Literacy Librarian & Marketing Librarian for California State University, Fullerton. Colleen also teaches an online graduate-level U.S. genealogy methodology course for San Jose State University. 

Greene is a nationally recognized genealogy speaker and educator specializing in methodology, Mexican & Hispanic research, libraries and archives, technology, and society communications. She publishes a genealogy instruction blog, and a free Hispanic research email newsletter.
