[Genealib] Free Genealogy Librarians' Boot Camp in Burbank, California

[Paula Hinkel]

The Southern California Genealogical Society announces a free three-hour
educational session for librarians.  Held in conjunction with the Society's
40th Annual Southern California Genealogy Jamboree, the "Genealogy
Librarians' Boot Camp" will be conducted by Thomas Jay Kemp, the Director of
Genealogy Products at NewsBank. A well-known librarian and genealogist for
more than 44 years, Kemp is the author of more than thirty books. His
numerous articles regularly appear in state and national library, archival
and genealogical journals.

The session will provide practical tools for harried librarians trying to
provide the best service to genealogists. Keep current on the best resources
- online and in print - and services you should be providing in your
library.

The session will be held Friday morning, June 26, 2009, from 9:00 a.m. to
12:00 noon in the City Ballroom of the Burbank Airport Marriott Hotel and
Convention Center, 2500 Hollywood Way, Burbank, California.

The session is free and participants do not need to register for paid
Jamboree sessions in order to attend. However, we do ask that interested
individuals register in advance for the Boot camp. Registration is limited
to the first 100 individuals.  Register online at www.scgsgenealogy.com or
download a copy of the program brochure to register by mail.
