Program Synopsis: PERSI serves as a comprehensive index of most genealogical and family-history oriented periodicals. PERSI enables researchers to locate key information about people and places. It contains over 2.5 million entries from thousands of historical, genealogical and ethnic publications, making it an invaluable, comprehensive family history resource. Researchers may access articles, photos, and other materials that may be difficult to locate using traditional search methods. This can help to build the historical context around personal research, and the world that our ancestors lived in. This information often provides leads for follow-up investigation.
