Are you new to genealogy and family history? Do you have an interest in these but don’t know where to begin? Maybe you’re a seasoned researcher looking for that hard-to-find piece of information? Or perhaps you’re looking to rekindle a project that’s been on hold. Whatever your level of experience, we welcome you to visit CPL-Lyons to break through brick walls, connect with other family history and genealogy researchers, and explore the many resources available in our collections and online. 

​

The Lyons Branch Library is a designated FamilySearch Center. Patrons have access to digital images not available outside of a family history center or affiliate library. FamilySearch has the largest genealogy collection in the world and they continually add new records.
