I read this book the week before I arrived for my first visit to the FHL. It was very useful to me. I did what they suggested and purchased the FHL Library catalog on CD (did not know that was available before) and searched in my hotel room for potentially useful items when the library was closed. I was then able to go straight to those items the next day. A good descripton of the surrounding area too. I know they can't cover it all, but I would like to see them add a little something on what there is to do with young children in the area. My husband had to entertain the children while I was doing my research.
I find this will be a great help in getting around the Family History Library as this is my first trip there. Knowing where things are and how to prepare will help me take full advantage of my limited time there. Having been told knowing what you want and where in the Library it is, will save me much time and effort, this book doest just that for me.
I am going to The Family History Library in October 2015 & found this book very helpful to prepare for my trip. Check the library's website for any updated information (like hours, etc.) that might have changed since this book was printed.
The book was in pristine shape! And arrived very fast! Wonderful experience with this vendor. I will certainly use them again.
very helpful book and fast service
