It seems like the whole world of genealogists are at RootsTech 2016 in Salt Lake City right now. Except us. We're missing out on all the fun. But wait. We can still be part of the fun, and do it from our own homes, and it won't cost us a penny.
As in years past, RootsTech 2016 will stream several sessions live on the RootsTech.org home page. And after the conference, recording of those sessions will be posted on the website for a limited time.
Below is the streaming schedule (all times are in MST):
