Our Facility:
The library is staffed by volunteers and houses a collection of over 10,000 volumes which complement other area library holdings.

The facility also serves as a meeting place for the MGS board, educational classes, various committees, and branch organizations. The library offers a place for researchers to talk genealogy, to hear suggestions on research problems, and to meet other genealogists to exchange ideas.

A photocopy machine and microfilm and microfiche readers and copiers are available for patrons use. The library is open to the public at the hours shown below. We invite you to visit us soon.

Computers are available with Internet and WiFi access. MGS provides access to the MGS Library accounts at Ancestry and Heritage Quest and access to Family Origins is provided thanks to Irish Genealogical Society International.
