Njila New Moon Workshop: Giving Thanks for the Path | Documenting Research

Njila New Moon Workshop — "Giving Thanks for the Path | Documenting Research"

You've done research. You've found things — records, names, dates, stories. But if that work lives only in your head, in scattered notes, or in a disorganized folder, it is at risk of being lost. Documenting what you've found is an act of love for the people who come after you.

In this one-hour workshop, two days before Thanksgiving, B. Kelly, Founder of Njila, walks you through practical systems for organizing, documenting, and preserving your genealogical research so it survives you and reaches the next generation.

You'll learn:

• How to organize research files, source documents, and notes in a sustainable system

• How to write up findings in a format that future family members (and researchers) can use

• Citation practices that make your research defensible and credible

• How to think about preserving and sharing what you've found

What's included:

GA ($27) — Live workshop access

VIP ($47) — Live workshop access + downloadable Research Documentation Organizer (fillable PDF research template)

This workshop is free for Njila Patreon members (Storykeeper tier and above). Join at patreon.com/njila.
