THERE’S STILL ROOM IN NERGC’S HANDS-ON WORKSHOPS

In the last issue, we featured two hands-on Photoshop Elements workshops that will help genealogists master the management of photo and document images on their computers (see http://www.nergc.org/2007/ezine9.htm .) Here are some additional workshops you won’t want to miss. Note that conference registration and an additional fee are required.

On Thursday, 26 April, Marcia Innizzi Melnyk will present a beginner’s primer to genealogy. For those new to the hunt, plenty of basic research tips will be supplied. For those new to genealogy, this is an ideal way to start the conference. Register for Session T-101, $35.

On Friday, 27 April, Maureen A. Taylor and David L. Mishkin present a workshop on identifying and preserving family photographs. Learn to identify family photographs by researching photographers, dating costume clues, and comparing facial characteristics. Participants are invited to bring family photographs with them. Register for Session F-218, $30.

On Saturday, 28 April, Laura G. Prescott will present a workshop on locating digitized images online. From maps to personal documents, discover how and where to find digital images and hidden treasures on websites across the Internet. Participants are required to bring their own laptop computer (either Windows or Mac) with a wireless Internet card. Register for Session S-301, $30.
