Tacoma Pierce County Genealogical Society Monthly Education Meeting February 2026

Tacoma Pierce County Genealogical Society Monthly Educational Meeting
Tuesday, February 10, 2026, starting at 6:00 pm

This month’s presentation: TBD

This month’s presentation: is by Crystal Hicks, Head of Collections for the Washington State Library. Her presentation is:
Bureaucracy to the Rescue: The Hidden Value of State Library Collections.

Bureaucracy rarely gets top billing, but this presentation makes the case for its quiet heroics. “Bureaucracy to the Rescue” explores how the Washington State Library’s unique collections (state publications, reference, and special collections) become indispensable tools in moments of research and discovery. Through real-world examples, the session highlights how careful collecting, description, and preservation of bureaucratic materials support transparency, accountability, genealogy, legal research, and unexpected human stories hiding in plain sight.

This month’s meeting will be Zoom Only until we can find a new physical location to meet in person.
