What are Bygdeboker? They are published farm and family histories compiled by local Norwegian groups. They contain genealogical information about families, towns, and counties in Norway.
Concordia's Bygdebok collection is housed on the first floor of the library in our special collections. Please ask for assistance if you are unfamiliar with the layout of the library. Our Bygdeboker can be checked out with a valid Concordia library card, or requested Interlibrary Loan from your local library. Folks can also come to the library any time we are open and use them in-house. We have a scanner you can use to send PDF documents to your personal e-mail.
