You may access the database on one of the library's public access computer terminals or by logging onto the library's wireless internet service on your laptop or mobile device. The database is not accessible from home. While in the library, visit http://ancestrylibrary.proquest.com and start your search or ask library staff how to access the service. For assistance with getting started and tips on searching, please visit the LibGuide for Ancestry Library Edition.
