Genealogy is like a jigsaw puzzle, but you don't have the box top, so you don't know what the picture is supposed to look like. As you start putting the puzzle together, you realize some pieces are missing, and eventually you figure out that some of the pieces you started with don't actually belong to this puzzle. I'll help you discover the right pieces for your puzzle and assemble them into a picture of your family.

For the month of June only, Proquest is providing free access to libraries to its Historical Jewish Newspaper project. Go to http://www.proquest.com/en-US/ promos/feature27_pq.shtml for more information. The instructions are to join the ProQuest Discover More Corps social network, then click on the tab there for Database of the Month. Librarians may also request a longer free trial and other products from ProQuest.

Someone posted on one of my mailing lists that it is not necessary to be connected with a library to gain access through the Discover More Corps (DiscoverMoreCorps.com). On the page after you enter your e-mail address and password, you can select one of seven occupations from the drop-down menu, including "researcher" and "other." Then fill in the organization with which you are affiliated. "Self" and "none" are acceptable answers.
