How to Use the Sutro Geneology Library

Sutro Library, the California State Library branch located in San Francisco, has one of the largest genealogy collections west of Salt Lake City. Sutro Library is not just a physical hub for the genealogy community, it is also a virtual hub. Come learn about the highlights of the genealogy collection, how to search online, and how to access on-site once the Library reopens.

Dvorah Lewis joined the California State Library in June of 2017 as the Genealogy & Local History Library at the Sutro Library. She earned her Master’s in Library & Information Science at UCLA. Her passion forarchives and genealogy was inspired by an interview with her great Aunt Essie, the then-eldest member of her family. She is excited to help researchers learn how to navigate the State Library’s extraordinary collections and resources. Dvorah feels that by preserving the past we can understand the present and bring positive change to the future.
