DAR Librarian Elizabeth Ernest provided FRGS members with an extensive overview of the DAR’s holdings. The DAR is a non-profit volunteer women’s organization with over 180,000 members. The library holds extensive collections, categorized by subject: Print, Special Collections, and Digital Collections. Their GRS (Genealogical Research System) contains member applications and supporting documents. Much of this information is available online. Their GRC (Genealogical Records Committee) has over 20,000 volumes donated by state chapters. The DAR’s newest project is the Patiot Records Project, an ongoing volunteer effort to index names. Currently eight states have been completed. For much more information check their website at: http://www.DAR.org
