点评:All of the superlatives about the Family History Library are true--it is THE place to do genealogy research. I had a short time to visit, which I certainly wish had been longer. If you are a first-time visitor like me, the staff will take you in hand and point you in the right direction. Each floor has a different area of focus, and there are helpful folks there to assist. At some workstations help is literally just a click away, so please don't be intimidated by the thought of such a vast library.
When I visit a library, I always hate to leave for long because I get focused on the work. There is a nice break space on the first floor with many vending machines. There are choices for everyone, so it is easy to grab a quick sandwich or snack and get back to your project.
One of the fantastic and fun areas that I did not get to explore is on the ground floor. High tech work stations offer all kinds of programs and features to make family history fun and interactive. You can explore your ancestry in greater depth and print out family trees, among other things. I would encourage anyone to make a visit to the Family History Library if they are interested in the stories of those who came before us.
翻译:关于家谱图书馆的所有最高级的评价都是真实的——它是进行家谱研究的地方。我参观的时间很短,我当然希望时间更长一些。如果您像我一样是第一次来访,工作人员会牵着您的手,为您指明正确的方向。每个楼层都有不同的重点领域,并且有乐于助人的人员提供帮助。在某些工作站上,实际上只需单击一下即可获得帮助,因此请不要被如此庞大的图书馆的想法吓倒。
当我参观图书馆时,我总是不愿意离开太久,因为我要专注于工作。一楼有一个不错的休息空间,有很多自动售货机。每个人都有多种选择,因此您可以轻松地吃一份三明治或小吃,然后继续您的项目。
我没有去探索的一个奇妙而有趣的区域是在一楼。高科技工作站提供各种程序和功能,使家族史变得有趣和互动。您可以更深入地探索您的祖先并打印家谱等。如果任何人对我们之前的人的故事感兴趣,我会鼓励任何人参观家族历史图书馆。
