Re: [LegacyUG] Donating Legacy research to library

Hi Gary,
Contact Legacy, at one time many years ago, Legacy would provide it's program 
free of charge to a library, not sure if it still does this, I'm talking about 
the deluxe edition.

If this is still available than all you will need to do is buy a thum drive and 
download your program information to the stick and upload it to the library 
Legacy program.

Subject: [LegacyUG] Donating Legacy research to library

Hello all!

I'm in the process of making a donation of my 40+ year research to a major 
regional library. I've already rounded up the supporting folders/files 
collected over the years.  I have Legacy research on my own line; maternal and 
paternal  lines, inlaws, etc. These are all separate databases. I need to know 
how to prepare the actual Legacy database. I know making a GEDCOM is necessary. 
What else needs to be included?

LEGACY is contained in a folder named GENEALOGY - Legacy Families.  within that 
folder are sub-folders 1) DATA; 2) iDrive; 3) Intel; 4) Legacy FS ; 5) 
LegacyCharting; 6) Media. By including the entire folder and sub-folders and 
the GEDCOMs for each database would the receiving institution be able to run 
Legacy and have all the comments, attachments, etc available for their access 
and review.

Gary
