Learn how to use library resources to uncover family history through digitized historical newspapers.

Newspapers are an incredible resource for genealogical research and thousands are available online. We’ll cover what kinds of information are found in newspapers, how to identify and locate relevant online newspapers, and how to effectively search for the information you want.

The Delaware County Genealogical Society encourages and supports individual and group research in family history, including gathering, preserving, and publishing records, especially those about Delaware County, Ohio.

About the branch

The 35,000 square foot Delaware Branch Library is the oldest branch of our library system, which serves the public as well as houses a majority of our administrative offices. Located around the corner from downtown Delaware, it serves as our central branch for those on foot as well as those in a rush. 


The Delaware Library also hosts the Delaware County Genealogical Society. Genealogical Society volunteers are in the Library to assist researchers on limited dates and by appointment. 

DCDL welcomes all people to our programs and events. If you require ASL interpretation or other reasonable accommodations, please contact us at pr@delawarelibrary.org.
