FAQs
I can search all 800 books at one time and even search for a name?
- Yes, the great advantage of the new site is the ability to do global searches. You will see the titles that contain the search terms along with the number of hits. When you highlight a title, you will see the hits along with a few words to add context.
Can I copy, paste, and print?
- Of course, you can do those things. To respect our authors, we have placed limits on how much of any book you can print before asking us for permission.
Can you bookmark pages, highlight portions, and add notes?
- Yes, and it is easy. The site will guide you along the way
Does the platform provide citations?
- Yes. You can find citations in more than one place. Perhaps the easiest way to add the citation is when you have the book open and click on More book options.
Can I download the books and work remotely?
- Yes, you can work remotely on a computer, laptop, tablet, Kindle or phone– any device on which the Bookshelf app can be loaded.

I know that you publish genealogy books in paperback and hardbound. Tell me about your company
- Genealogical.com is the leading–and oldest–publisher of genealogy books in the country. Under the Genealogical Publishing Company (GPC) and Clearfield Company imprints, Genealogical.com features a catalog of more than 2,000 publications, many of which–such as Val D. Greenwood’s Researcher’s Guide to American Genealogy and Elizabeth Shown Mills’ Evidence Explained–have set the standard for their fields.
- With this website, we hope to expand the ways researchers can access the useful–and in many cases unique–information in our publications by offering not only our extensive catalog of print books but also eBook editions of an ever-increasing number of our publications. We’re also making available subscriptions to collections of our titles. We hope this affordable alternative will allow more of our customers to access not only data but also the stories of their ancestors, much of which were written by their contemporaries.
- Our mission is to provide the best published resources for genealogists and historians looking for assistance in their research
