The Genealogy SA Council is aiming to re-open the Society's Library to membership and the general public by Wednesday 1 July 2020.
As the Society’s Library caters for, and is run by, people within the vulnerable age group, the Council has decided to use this time to undertake some upgrades to the IT network in the building whilst gradually easing both staff and volunteers back into the library, whilst being mindful of meeting the mandated social distancing requirements in the coming weeks.
Although our face-to-face services are temporarily suspended, you can still access the Genealogy SA services and collections online via our website:
