Allen County Public Library-Genealogy Department in Fort Wayne, Indiana is NOT closed!

Yes, the library is going to expand, and yes, the library will move to an interim location.

Yes it is true we will be going through renovation in the future. However the move to our interim location will not be happening until at least July/Aug of next year, 2003.

In the interim location, which is located just 4 blocks from the current library, the Genealogy Department will be open to researchers. Until that time our collection is open at its current location (900 Webster St, Fort Wayne) accessible and ready for use as always. We will continue to have the resources of this nationally known collection available both at the current location, at the interim location, and of course in our new improved library after the renovation.

Please pass this information on to genealogy societies, family history researchers, and libraries, anyone, any organization interested in family history research.

For further information visit our web site www.acpl.lib.in.us, or phone 260-421-1225.

We would enjoy having you visit us!

Thanks!

Hi Steve,

We receive the JCGS newsletter here at the library. We noticed that in the May-June 2002 issue you mention your trip to the Burton Collection in Detroit. Also mentioned is that ACPL will be closed at that time.

We won't be.

So, if you would like to visit us in October, or any time in the future, please let us know, we'd enjoy having your group here.

Visit the library web site for current information on the renovation.

I left a voice message for you at home. Please give me a call if you have any questions or if I can be of help.

Thanks!

Sue
