This week I hope to continue to learn more about the tools available to assist with family history research. There is a tool called a microfilm reader, that I have seen but do not know how to use. I have briefly heard of the tool and its purpose, but I’m not sure how to use it. According to the other volunteers and what I have read, a microfilm reader is used to project and magnify images to make them more readable. I hope to be able to explore this tool more and see how it is useful to research and individual’s family history exploration.
