The Spring Genealogy & Local History Workshop at Burlington Public Library is three full days of all things genealogy and local history!

The workshop includes:
*Two Lunch & Learn sessions (Friday & Saturday)
*A drop-in Learning Lab for 1:1 help with genealogy/research questions
*An exclusive book sale from the Friends of the Burlington Public Library, specially curated for genealogists and local history researchers
