An introduction to the Midwest Genealogy Center in Independence, Missouri, and its resources including microforms, periodicals, databases, and books.
As a patron of the Mid-Continent Public Library genealogy section, beginning her own family history search in 1980, Cheryl Lang was bitten by the genealogy bug. Now, 35 years later and as manager of the Midwest Genealogy Center, she is still just as excited to use and share the family history resources at this library.
Cheryl obtained her master’s degree in library science from Emporia State University, Emporia, Kansas, and a bachelor degrees in both management and computers from Webster University, St. Louis, Missouri. Adding genealogy to her library interests, working at the Midwest Genealogy Center has become her dream job.
Cheryl currently serves as 1st vice president of the Missouri State Genealogical Association and belongs to several local genealogy societies. She is a member of the History Section and the Genealogy Committee of the Reference and User Services Association of the American Library Association.
Having shared her genealogy and oral history expertise at genealogy conferences and many smaller society meetings, Cheryl is very excited to be speaking at NGS for the first time!
