I have made no small attempt in life to visit every possible library I can when in a new city or country. Whether it’s Seattle for a month, or Barcelona for a day, Libraries (and playgrounds) are always very high on our priority list. I have had the privled of visiting every library included below, and try to hold as many active cards as possible for researching. When it comes to Genealogy departments, not all libraries are created equal. The URLs below are for the unique or critical resources you should be able to take advantage of at each location. Happy hunting!
