Louise St Denis, Director at National Institute of Genealogical Studies and friend Roylene |
As I look through the list of classes, keynotes and activities, it appears that this conference promises to be one of the best yet.

There are so many classes to choose from but I am particularly excited about the classes that will help me write my ancestors' stories and classes about technology. Sharing ancestors' stories is a passion of mine and I would like to learn how to do it better. And I really need to learn more about using the technology available. The Compiling Singular Records into Lively Stories track has some great classes to help with sharing ancestors' stories and there are a variety of classes about technology in the Communications for Today track, Modern Access to Vintage Resources track and of course the Technology track as well as Technology for the Future track. There are so many options, it is going to be a challenge for me to narrow it down.

An app listing your books?? And you think you're not techy?? Go you!
ReplyDeleteOh how I wish that was a sign of something. If anything it is a sign of my love of books.
DeleteCan you share the name of the App? It sounds like something I could really use!
ReplyDeleteYou bet! I am not sure what type of phone and devices you use, I have an iMac, iPhone, iPad, Macbook---so I use apple apps. This app is iBookshelf and I believe it was $1.99.
DeleteI am not sure if they have an android version. But if they don't, I bet someone does.
For the newer books with a barcode, it will scan the book and upload the information along with it, including a picture of the book. The older books without the barcode, I take a picture and upload and enter the info manually, but it is easy. Then it alphabetizes the books for me. It is so nice to be able to check and see if it is a book I already have.
It sounds like so much fun Michelle! I wish I were able to attend.
ReplyDeleteOh I really wish you could be there too Jana
