Genealogy Help from MyHeritage Library Edition
You are probably familiar with Ancestry Library Edition for assisting patrons with genealogy research. But did you know that the PA Power Library offers EBSCO’s MyHeritage Library Edition for all Pennsylvania library card holders, too?
This multilingual family history research database includes billions of historical documents from 48 countries, millions of historical photos, public records, indexes, and additional resources that span the past five centuries.
As well as information you’d assume you would find, like census data, citizenship and naturalization records, military records, and US public records, MyHeritage also offers unique resouces like:
- Nearly 5 billion exclusive family tree profiles from MyHeritage and Geni
- Hundreds of millions of Nordic records
- More than 100 million gravestone photos
- Additional content under license including Tributes obituaries, WikiTree, BillionGraves, Canadian Headstones and many others
Plus, unlike Ancestry Library Edition, this database can be accessed remotely allowing users to search from the comfort of their own home.
More than 100 million records are added every month, making this growing collection an excellent resource for researchers.
