Presented by Mary Van Orsdol

Speaker will present remotely / Presentation will be recorded

After about 25 years of working on genealogy, Mary Van Orsdol had created a collection of document and book photocopies that filled nearly 40 binders and one large file cabinet. She was forced to “go paperless” when she retired and moved to a much smaller house. Mary will cover the essentials of going paperless: file formats; scan settings, downloads, and permalinks; file name protocols, file properties, software options, directory structures, and more.

Learning from Members is a partnership program between Carlsbad City Library and the North San Diego County Genealogical Society (NSDCGS). Participants will learn about various genealogy topics and tips through these presentations offered by members of NSDCGS.

The program is held the second Tuesday of the month from January through November and is presented in person and virtually.

• Doors open at 9:30 a.m. for social time.
• Presentations, including question-and-answer sessions, are held from 10 to 11:30 a.m.
