Did you get a genealogy DNA test kit for Christmas?

West Bonner County Libraries’ first Live & Learn of the new year will focus on genealogy for those who may have received a DNA test kit for Christmas or are interested in learning more about their ancestry. On Thursday, Jan. 3 at 5:30 p.m. Genetic genealogist Meagan Mize will hold an informative class on the powers and pitfalls of DNA testing, how it works and how to interpret results. Registration for this class is not necessary.

Library patrons can beat the winter blues with a new program that encourages exploration of new genres and topics at the West Bonner Libraries. Adult winter reading book bingo started Tuesday, Jan. 1, to March 31 and is open to anyone over the age of 18. Pick up bingo cards and rules at the Priest River or Blanchard libraries. Completed cards will be entered into a drawing for a $25 Visa gift card.
