Librarian, Albuquerque Genealogy Center

Ways to Utilize the Main Genealogy Collection

 What's new at the Genealogy Center?  Join librarian Lisa Kindrick for an overview of the many resources available to support your family history research at the Albuquerque/Bernalillo County Libraries, including the latest additions to the local area network, microfilm, databases, and new books.

A native of Albuquerque, Lisa attended the University of New Mexico on a Calvin Horn Essay contest scholarship after writing an essay about her grandparents' lives farming pinto beans in the Estancia Valley.  She received a Master’s degree in Library Science from the University of Denver and worked for ten years at the University of New Mexico Health Sciences Center Library, including work with an oral history project, archival materials, and archival photos.  She has been excited to work at the Genealogy Center since January 2012 where she can combine her loves of family, New Mexico history, and librarianship.

After Lisa’s presentation, we will have genealogists available to help you with your genealogical brick walls. Bring your charts and be ready to ask questions!

This program is free and open to the public.
