Database Changes for MEL.ORG HeritageQuest Out, MyHeritage Library In

Attention Michigan Genealogists:

On October 1, 2018, the Michigan Electronic Library changed its subscription database menu. Many new databases are now available and some old ones have been dropped.

The change that affects genealogists is this:
HeritageQuest online was dropped, and has been replaced by MyHeritage Library Edition. As of now, any resident of the state of Michigan has free access to MyHeritage Library Edition through the mel.org site.

This access is available at home and in the library. Just go to mel.org (or click the MEL logo on the library's web site), then select eResources, then click MyHeritage Library Edition. If you are accessing from a Michigan-based ISP, you're in without any authentication.


If you have not used MyHeritage before, now is the time to check it out. It is also recommended browsing some of the other new (non-genealogy) database offerings because there are some very interesting new things available.

See you soon at Mt. Clemens Public Library!
