Quick post about learning through the Ontario Genealogical Society

The OGS has two easy ways to learn:

1. The OGS eWeekly: Sign up online for free. No need to be a member.
2. There is a monthly online OGS webinar, the first Tuesday of every month. The variety is great: Future Proofing your family history reasearch with Thomas MacEntee was this past Tuesday, and August 4 is on Canadian Copyright for Family Historians with Kathryn Lake Hogan. Members have access to archived webinars in the members-only area of the site.

Enjoy!

More Learning: Legacy Webinars

Legacy Family Tree is one of many software packages available to the family historian. Because I use it (and I gave it as a gift to my husband when he started documenting his own family tree research) I've subscribed to their newsletter, Legacy News - Tips & Tricks where I've learned that Legacy now offers free webinars. If you can't attend when they happen, they are archived and you can listen to them whenever you like. Three are planned between October 20 and November 3, and the first two are archived for your convenience. Check them out!
