[Genealib] Ancestry workshop

I also am teaching a class on ALE soon but it is for general public. One point you want to make sure to point out is that when someone browses on ALE that you will find the following. At the end of this excerpt that I copied and pasted you will see the word "more". This is at the end of each category and you need to make sure to look at that list as it contains LOTS MORE stuff.

  I will be presenting a training session to all staff in our library system about using Ancestry Library Edition so they can assist researchers who come in for help.  Most of these staff are not "into" their own genealogy (yet!). This will be a 45 minute presentation followed by hands-on assignments.  If you only had 45 minutes to teach staff the basics of showing researchers how to use Ancestry Library Edition, what do you consider the essentials to include?  Thanks for your help.
