007: How to Research Your House Pt. 2


Listen Later

Gear up for part TWO of researching historical properties! In this episode, we talk to our boss - Melissa Fisher Isaacs, Information Services Coordinator at the library, truly a wealth of information - about the resources and librarian tricks involved in learning about the history of houses (and other buildings) in Douglas County. We might or might not answer such gripping questions as... can you uncover the provenance of a corn crib? Listen to find out!
Launched in July 2021, Oranges & Peaches is a Lawrence Public Library podcast that invites listeners behind the scenes of the library’s reference desk. Hosts Hazlett and Ruby show that although librarians don’t always know everything, when we work together we can help you find the answers you need. Listeners will come away knowing where to go for their research — or at least, knowing who they should ask! Oranges & Peaches is recorded in the SOUND+VISION Studio at Lawrence Public Library. Thanks to Joel Bonner for our jingle and editing the show!
