Listening genealogical experts at a top research library, who could ask for more? ICAPGen and the BYU Center for Family History and Genealogy would like to announce their 2006 conference, “Becoming an Excellent Genealogist.” It will be held on November 3rd and 4th at the Harold B. Lee Library on BYU Campus in Provo, Utah.
The Harold B. Lee Library is an excellent genealogical and historical research facility, and it is only an hour’s drive south of Salt Lake City and the Family History Library.

Each class has been chosen to provide advanced training for the genealogical researcher. You will be able to learn important techniques for research and writing. In addition, you will learn about the culture of your ancestors from Germany, Scandinavia, Spain, and England. Those who would like to take the Accredited Genealogist examination can get answers to their questions and concerns. Professional researchers can learn ways to improve their businesses. Each class instructor is an expert in his or her field.
Keynote Speaker will be David Rencher, AG, CG, FUGA. His topic will be “Shifting Technologies Create a Shifting Profession,” describing the unrelenting impact of the Information Age on the advanced genealogist’s tools, methodology and business model.
The Gala Banquet will be held at the Museum of Art on BYU Campus, Friday, November 3rd. Surrounded by beautiful works of art, we will feast on the Grand Buffet. Kory Meyerink, AG, FUGA, will entertain us with “It’s True, It’s True! I Saw it in Print!” Humorous stories and anecdotes actually found in genealogical writings. But, some actually turned out to be true. Can your truth radar discern the accurate stories from the embellished?
Don’t miss this wonderful opportunity.
