Ancestry® Library Edition arrives

The UTSW Library has recently acquired the database Ancestry® Library Edition (ProQuest). This database is perfect for both the casual researcher of genealogy and the expert. It is the library version of the paid Ancestry subscription but with a few differences.

  • Users are not allowed to save items to a new or existing family tree, they may email items or save them to a flash drive.
  • Forums and advice on how to search for difficult family members are available, as well as forms to print to build your own family tree.
  • Users may search records from around the world, but please note that records are not translated from their original language.

October is National Medical Librarians Month and American Archives Month!

In fiscal year 2021, Library staff partnered with clients to discover and apply information for clinical, health care, educational, and research purposes, including:

  • Answering over 2,600 reference questions
  • Teaching 374 educational events attended by 1,799 clients
  • Processing over 4,800 interlibrary loans and document delivery requests
