Ancestry Workshops Video


The winners of the Perth & Kinross Council Securing the Future Awards 2011 were recently announced at Perth Concert Hall.

The Ancestry Workshops project was a Silver Award Winner in Category 1 (Customer Focus).

The workshops have given a basic introduction to family history research and resources available through the library service and the opportunity to use basic computing skills supported by the Adult Learning Team. As a community based adult learning opportunity this developed into a four week short course and between July 2009 and January 2011, 28 learners were introduced to family history research.
