🔵 BOOK SALE !
American Ancestors by New England Historic Genealogical Society is having an online used book sale through October, with an additional 10% discount. See the titles at https://shop.americanancestors.org/collections/used-and-remaindered-books

🔵 A FOND FAREWELL
Thursday I had a lovely time presenting a webinar for the Clayton Library Friends on the ins and outs of the ConferenceKeeper website. Immediately following my program was a very sweet “Farewell” presentation for Susan Kaufman, who is leaving the Clayton Library Center for Genealogical Research in Houston, having been the Senior Manager there since 2005. We wish Susan all the best for her next adventures!

🔵 NEW CONTESTS / GIVEAWAYS!

This year the RootsTech pass giveaways are going to be handled differently than they have in the past. Instead of each individual Ambassador/Influencer giving away a single pass, The RootsTech folks are holding just one contest, and will be giving away a total of 20 passes. The sweepstakes will run through October 31, with winners being announced on November 1. See our Contests page for full details and the link to enter. As always, if you’ve already purchased your ticket, they will most likely refund your purchase should you win a free pass.

Family Tree Magazine is giving away an Epson Perfection V600 photo scanner, valued at $349, with resolution up to 6400 x 9600 dpi. See our Contests page for full details and the link to enter.
