As of 2024, HistoryLink.org features more than 8,200 original articles. It is a work in progress, with new features being added all the time.

413 N Main Street, Suite L, Ellensburg, Washington 98926
Hey, do you work during the weekdays so you can't get to the KCGS Library to do your genealogy research?  Well... we have an option for YOU!!!  During the months of February, March and April we are trying a "special Library Hours" event on the 2nd Saturday of those months.  We will be OPEN from 10am to 1pm on those Saturdays as a "trial" to see if members/others would use that opportunity.  
 
One caveat - since the building is normally LOCKED on weekend, if you want to use those hours please call us at 509 925-5951 so we can get you in.  Also, for entry to the building on Saturday, use the door facing Main Street, not the rear door of the building.
