Our latest free online trial is... Findmypast, home to the largest
collection of Irish family history records anywhere online, Findmypast is the
best place to discover your ancestors.
Findmypast is the best place to trace your Irish heritage. They work in partnership with some
Ireland's biggest archives, including the National Archives of Ireland, to bring
you a comprehensive collection of records, including census, land, birth,
marriage and death records, detailed court and prison registers, early
directories, historic local newspapers, and lots more.
To access this free trial go to: http://www.findmypast.ie/ on campus only
until the 24th May 2015.
When you perform your initial search then
go to view the record, you should be taken to another screen where you will see
an option to "continue as a guest" or "register for free". If the user chooses "continue as a guest" they will
have full access to the library subscription, if they decide to "register" the
visitor will then have created their own registration which will allow them to
build a family tree on our site and use the library subscription at the same
time. This new option has been added to allow the visitor maximum access to the
findmypast site, with the opportunity to build their family tree whilst using
the library subscription, as mentioned if they continue as a guest, this will
give them full access to the libraries subscription.
