"Information about our genealogy
collection can be found in our online card catalog (www.gapines.org). To find items classified Genealogy
simply click on Advanced Search and change the 'Quick Search' drop
down to Call number and type GEN in the field and submit.
This will give the patron a listing of all things at Union County
Public Library classified as Genealogy. Similiarly, if a patron
wishes to find out what other libraries have classified as Genealogy
they may first select the library they wish to search in on the online
card catalog and then follow the instructions above for doing an
advanced search. If a patron needs help learning how to do
this for themself, they may come into the library and a staff
member will walk them through the procedure."
