How do I save or print records?

Ancestry Library may only be used in the libraries. In order to view your findings at home, you may either print them, save them to a flash drive, or send them to your email.

You may also try HeritageQuest, a smaller collection of genealogy records that is available to use from home, or Ask a Librarian online or by phone for assistance: 608-266-6350
