New HeritageQuest® Online, powered by Ancestry, coming March 4

We have some exciting news! On March 4th your HeritageQuest Online will be transitioning to a new interface, powered by Ancestry.

The new interface will provide users with an enhanced, more efficient search experience. Additionally, the transition will result in several new content enhancements that we think you will like!

Summary of key changes

Access: The conversion to the new version will be

automatic. No changes will need to be made by

libraries.

Authentication: All existing authentication

methods will remain in place and intact, including

static IP address, referring URL, barcode, and

embedded username and password.

Browser Requirements: HeritageQuest Online

will be optimized to perform best on current

versions of Google Chrome, Mozilla Firefox, Apple

Safari, and Microsoft Internet Explorer 9 or newer (we recommend IE 11+).
