Round
Rock Public Library System now has a substantial size collection including
film, CD-ROM, online access to databases, and print resources including
monographs and periodicals. Most of the print collection is owned by the
Williamson County Genealogy Society, while much of the film, CD-ROM, and
database sources are owned or leased by the library. A surname file also
exists. A genealogist is on duty Saturday, Sunday, and Monday
afternoon/evening.

Subject: Genealogy collections of
significance in CTLS
Greetings!
In
re-vamping my list of �Genealogy Collections in Our Part of Texas,� I thought
it would be helpful to ask our member libraries if they consider their
genealogy collection significant enough to list in this handout. If your
library is on the list, you may get a little more traffic than if you are not
listed. J
Please
tell me in the next week (by June 5) whether you have a genealogy collection
at your library that is worth someone coming from out of town to check. If
there is one in your town, but not in the library, I�d like to know that,
also. Thanks!
On the
list so far:
Texas
State Library
Houston
PL�s Clayton Genealogical Library (a separate branch)
Dallas
PL
Waco-McLennan County
Library
Fayette
Public Library & Archives
Burnet
County Library System�s Herman Brown Free Library
Kingsland Library
(Llano County Library System)
Llano
County Library System Main Library
Temple
PL
Lena
Armstrong Library, Belton
Non-library
collection: Hamilton
A clue
to the significance of your collection: most of these are either in a separate
building or in a separate room of their library. It�s more than just a shelf
or two. Thanks!
