Ancestry Library Edition, distributed exclusively by ProQuest and powered by Ancestry.com, provides users with an extensive collection of genealogical and historical records from North America, the United Kingdom, Europe, Australia, and beyond. With over 7,000 databases containing census data, vital records, directories, photos, and more, it's an essential resource for genealogists, historians, and family history enthusiasts. The platform features an intuitive search interface, detailed search indexes, and a helpful Learning Center. Key collections include U.S. federal and state censuses, Canadian vital records, UK censuses, international records, and military collections. While it lacks some personalization tools available in the consumer version of Ancestry.com, such as family tree creation and DNA testing, Ancestry Library Edition remains a powerful tool for libraries serving patrons interested in uncovering their family history and exploring historical records.
