Ancestry Library Edition
Our supplier has informed us that "beginning in March 2020, access to Ancestry Library Edition was temporarily expanded during Covid-19 shutdowns to allow remote access for Public Libraries. After nearly 2 years of temporary remote access, Ancestry has made the difficult decision to end it. Remote access for Ancestry Library Edition will no longer be available."
Leicester library members can still have free access to the Ancestry Library Edition in the Central Library via the public computers.
