Let us know what you think!

Thank you to all those who have given us their feedback on Ancestry Library Edition. The free trial that Brent Libraries, Arts and Heritage have been able to offer closed last Friday, and we are delighted that so many of you used the trial and let us know what you think. As well as the many people who accessed the trial from home computers, the two introductory sessions were well attended, with participants finding out about lost relatives, as well as learning more about their  family history, using the wide range of records available on the website, including census records, birth, marriage, and death indexes, military records, and passenger lists.

We need your feedback to decide whether to subscribe to the service, which would make this resource available free in all Brent Libraries as well as in the Archives. If you feel that we should, or should not, make this resource available, please let us know your thoughts by completing the survey, or email libraries@brent.gov.uk or archives@brent.gov.uk with your feedback before the end of July. Thanks to all who have given us their comments already!
