When planning a visit to Ft. Wayne, make a list of exactly what you want to
view. The library is so large that the first time I went I was overwhelmed
by what they have. I would take pencils and pens,a small stapler and do not
read everything you through want you want, but copy everything. You can
always read it later. Be sure to date everything and label the reference
and the page no. I take a plastic box with these items in it and well as
file folders for each family I am looking for. The copy machines are great,
but many are usually busy. Expect your day to be very busy and you will be
tired at the end of the day. You will never for get your visit and I know
from experience that you will want to go again. Lynn Hilty Sewell-TN
