7:00 – 8:45 PM

Our Programs for the Evening:

Preserving Photos of the National Parks – Mary Findysz
Guest Speaker, Mary Findysz of Photographic Works will discuss her work in photographic preservation for the National Park Service.

Copies and Copyrights – Staying Out of Trouble – Marcia Lindley
Can you publish your family history and include the pictures of Great Aunt Agatha’s family? Is it okay to post on your genealogy website portions of a family tree you found elsewhere on the Internet? How many pages of that book can you legally photocopy? If you’ve ever wondered about the answers to questions like this, mark October 12th on your calendar. With help from Sharon Scott, Marcia Lindley will try to decode United States copyright laws as they apply to genealogists and explain them in plain English so we can all stay on the straight and narrow.
