Upcoming seminars – click here
The seminars will be part of the program of all three sponsoring partners. They will generally be:
- held several times a year
- held at the State Library’s Hetzel Theatre, a central location convenient for public transport access and with good parking options nearby. On occasions they may be held at another venue
- a full day – though a two-day program may be offered occasionally
Each seminar will generally feature
- five main presentations by at least two invited speakers, mostly South Australian, but occasionally from interstate, or even overseas
- presentations by State Library and Genealogy SA speakers – to suit the seminar theme
- an extended 90-minute lunch break to allow opportunity (apart from eating lunch) to:
– do one of the two tours of the State Library family history service (each limited to 20 people maximum)
– do a bit of research in the library
– relax between morning and afternoon programs - two 20-minute Tours of the State Library family history service offered during the extended 90-minute lunch break. These will be offered at each quarterly seminar, so there will be opportunity again if you miss out the first time
- the option to bring your own lunch or buy from the Aroma Café within the library – or go off-site to nearby cafes
