A Look at the Family History Fair’s Booksellers and Publishers
Here’s a look at the booksellers and publishers that will be at the Government and Heritage Library Family History Fair on August 11, 2012.
From popular paperback books about the Wright brothers, legends, lighthouses, pirates, highway historical markers, and the Civil War to resources for historical and genealogical researchers, the Historical Publications Section of the Office of Archives and History offers more than 160 titles that reflect the rich variety of Tar Heel history. The section has high research and editorial standards for the books, articles, maps, and
other materials that it publishes. Make sure to visit their online store as well.
Based in Raleigh, North Carolina, Lulu Publishing offers self-publishing and book printing services for those who have written a book or are thinking of writing a book in the future. At the fair, you’ll be able to talk to them in more detail about how they can help make that happen for you. If you have a family history already written and want to put it together as a book for family members instead of it sitting on your computer or in a folder, connect with Lulu at the fair for assistance.
