In partnership with the North Mayo Heritage Centre and the South Mayo Family Research Centre, the library will host free genealogy consultations between 10am and 3.30pm on Friday the 21st of August.

Ger Delaney and Brendan Walsh, family history researchers at the two Co. Mayo centres, will be in attendance to help you on a one-to-one basis to get started with your family history research, or to assist with any questions you may have about your own research.
