Library Closed - Get started on genealogy research

All four Chandler Public Library branches will be closed Monday, May 26 for Memorial Day.

While the library's closed, you can still access many of our online resources, including HeritageQuest for genealogical research. View Census images from 1790 to 1940, search the text of books and articles, find records from the Revolutionary War, and more. And check out our Genealogy Resources page for links to even more online resources. (Sorry, Ancestry can only be used in the library during regular hours.)

Our friends at the Arizona State Library, Archives and Public Records have put together this brief article on how to get started with genealogy. Take a look, and remember that your state library is open to the public to help you with your research. Visit their website for their location and hours, and to learn more.
