Library Assistants

Volunteer Library Assistants are present in the Library Wednesday and Friday mornings.
So bring along your queries and get some help in finding some answers.

Please note:

1. Books and microfiche which are not locked in the cupboards or filing cabnets will be available during all normal library hours

2. Wednesday and Fridays will still be only days that "helpers" will be on duty to help with research.

3. It will be necessary to bring your IFHG member card with you to show to the librarian on duty to get the locked cupboards and filing cabinents. Locked cupboards and filing cabinets MUST NOT be left unlocked while doing research.

4. The IFHG computer is for the use of IFHG members only. It will be available to non-members for a fee and use under supervision.
