I came to the Oakland FamilySearch Library for “BLACK FAMILY HISTORY DAY 2020”, sponsored with The African American Genealogical Society of Northern California (AAGSNC). The beautiful, 10,000-square-foot genealogy library is adjacent to the magnificent Mormon Temple. There are 75 large flat-screen computers, state-of-the art equipment like scanners and printers, 9,000 volumes of books, periodicals, family histories, and attentive staff to help people discover their family roots. The center provides comprehensive collections available for research in genealogy and family history. Though they are maintained by the Church of Jesus Christ of Latter Day Saints, they are open to the public at no cost. I am so happy I attended the event and now have the calendar of future events.
