Ancestry Library Edition from home extended

Ancestry has just announced that home access to Ancestry Library Edition will continue for another month, until 31 August.  They made the decision back in April to allow this database, normally only accessed in the library buildings using our public PCs or wi-fi, to be accessed from home while libraries were either closed or only open to limited numbers.  So those Campaspe Regional Library members who are still unable to research Ancestry Library Edition in the library can continue to access this fantastic genealogical resource from home.

To access Ancestry Library Edition, you need to go to the Campaspe Regional Library web page at https://www.campaspe.vic.gov.au/library  On the right hand column, click on the link for 'Things to do from Home'.  The link for Ancestry Library Edition from home is at the top right.  You will be prompted to log in using your library card number and PIN, then follow the prompts to Ancestry's page and continue researching your family history from the comfort of home.

A huge thank you to Ancestry for making this resource available from home during the pandemic.  I hope you all enjoy access and stay safe.
