Online Databases
The library offers access to several online databases through wvinfodepot.org. This is not the open internet. Most of these articles have appeared in print, and should be acceptable for assignments that require "print" sources.
Genealogy
The library has a small genealogy collection. To aid our searches we use some of the following sites: FamilySearch.org offers free access to census information as well as other information.
The West Virginia Division of Culture and History allows users to search old vital records.
The Newspaper Archives Search on Wvinfodepot.org allows users to search old newspaper article from Beckley and Charleston. West Virginia Residents can contact the library for the password. The Wyoming County Public library does not have old copies of the local weekly papers. The newspapers may allow people to search their archives. Please remember that there was no newspaper service in the county until the 1870's, and even then many newspapers opened and closed after only a few months.
