Ogden FamilySearch Library 2014 Conference

What's NEW for this Conference:
NEW - Merrill White of Family Search and Ogden Temple President Froerer will be our keynote speakers. We are excited to have them open our conference and set the tone for the days activities.

2014 Conference introduction
Our presenters include generous professionals, teachers from the Salt Lake Family History Library and our own Ogden FamilySearch Library, and those knowledgeable sellers of family history books and software.

We project that over 60 classes will be taught to about 1,000 participants.

During each of our five periods, we will have classes for beginners, our non-gray haired genealogists, Spanish speakers and more advanced family historians. We will also offer more challenging research based classes for others who are interested in foreign research. Presenters from software companies will teach you how to use the products that will be for sale at conference prices.

Change seems to be the name of the family history game, so join us to stay up to date on all the latest and greatest programs and search strategies. Learn to Find, Organize, Preserve, and Share your Family History.

We are excited to especially welcome the youth that will be the cutting edge for progress in future family history. We will offer beginning tracks,Spanish speaking tracks and of course, all religions and everyone who loves (or is learning to love) family history is welcome.

This Annual Conference is made possible by WSU History Department, the volunteers from the community and the Ogden FamilySearch Library: ogdenfsl.org
