The San Luis Obispo County Genealogical Society has purchased a scanner
[ST Genie] for the purpose of scanning microfilmed Civil Court Cases on loan from the SLO County Superior Court. Beginning September 2011, Bob Christian will be available to scan slides for members on the 2nd and 4th Thursday of each month from 10am to 3pm in the Genealogical Library located upstairs in the Palm Street Public Library. Email Bob or phone him at [805] 461-3347 for either a morning or afternoon session appointment.

Slides will be converted to jpeg images which can then be printed or uploaded to your home computer. You may purchase a DVD from our Genealogical Library at a cost of $1.25. If you would rather put the images on your flash drive, bring it with you.
There are no fees for members, but if you feel that you would like to donate to the Society to defray the cost of the scanner, please do so.

Five times a year, members receive a reminder about upcoming meetings and classes sponsored by the Society as well as some meetings of interest at nearby genealogical societies.

Twice a year each member receives a compilation of genealogy related stories written by Society members.

Members enjoy discounts on publications, reduced admission fee for Society seminars and classes, special member rates for research trips and lower hourly fees for research assistance.

Any member who has a website may have a link to it posted on the Society's "Links" page.

Each member is invited to host his/her own Genealogical Family Tree Online providing it meets the qualifications given at SLO Published Genealogies.
