Genealogy Assistance is a one-hour appointment dedicated to helping you with your genealogy questions and needs. We can help you:

  • Formulate a research plan and recommend resources
  • Start the process of making your family tree
  • Find and analyze genealogical records
  • Learn to use genealogy databases (Ancestry Library Edition & others), including advanced features
  • Offer advice and a fresh perspective when you’re stuck with your research

A Genealogy Assistance appointment is available to Tinley Park Public Library cardholders, once per day, for up to an hour. Appointments must be booked at least 24 hours in advance, and not more than two weeks in advance.
