Introduction to online family history resources

Have you ever wanted to trace your family tree but didn't know where to start? More and more information is available online and the good news is that your Halton libraries service subscribes to some websites that you would normally have to pay for at home.

Come along to our demonstration of how to use online resources to start building a family tree. We'll use a case study and look at some of the websites that are used for family history.

The event is at Halton Lea library on Friday 25th March at 2.30pm and lasts for up to two hours. Tickets are £3 and are available from Halton Lea library. Numbers are limited so get yours while they last.

Widnes welcomes Spot the dog

Over 50 children came along to Widnes children’s library today to meet Spot the dog.

Everyone had a great time, dancing, hugging and having their pictures taken.

Spot was looking very smart and kept us all entertained for nearly an hour.

If you missed Spot, you can catch up with him at here:

Friday 11th March 10.30 – 11.30 at Runcorn Library or Saturday 12th March 2.00 – 3.00 at Halton Lea Library
