I have been asked to give a half day workshop on Genealogy, for the NY
Archives Conference. This is a professional conference with archivists
from all levels, historians, librarians, and some interested public as
well.

An example of what one person can do to record the Military History, Basic 
Genealogy of a specific World War II group of men who perished.
 
The Basic genealogy of 3,600 US Submarine Men Lost During WWII has been 
recorded and self published by myself.  Edition Four of a two volume tome is 
scheduled for release in early 2009.
 
It started as a supplement to the various monuments which depict names, 
rates, ranks and little else.  
 
Now, for the first time, a detailed reference work is available which records 
a brief biography of each man.  Family and basic genealogy data as well as 
military details has been extracted from a variety of sources which resulted in 
the Edition Three and prior publications. 
 
Since the WWII records were made available on Nov 1, 2008, much missing data 
has been extracted, daily, from the National Archives enormous resources.
 
Good luck on your upcoming talk.
 
If you would like more info about this sort of research and the process of 
"Self Publishing," please contact me.
