COVID-19 silver lining: Internet Archive eliminating Waitlist; NEHGS making books available online

3/27/2020

Internet Archive (archive.org) announced Wednesday that they are temporarily suspending their Waitlist that sometimes slows your efforts to research a particular family. They're calling it their National Emergency Library because so many students are stuck at home. If you are like me and put in a Waitlist request and then forget why you wanted that book when you get the email saying it's available, this is a blessing. Thank you, Internet Archive. The New England Historic Genealogical Society (NEHGS, aka americanancestors.org) announced in their weekly online newsletter that they are giving free access to the books and other publications in their Digital Collections. They are normally available only to members. To access them, go to digitalcollections.americanancestors.org. Thank you, NEHGS!
