Family Tree Magazine (familytreemagazine.com) has published a new book, “Genealogist’s Guide to Getting Organized,” a good guide for all of us whether you have decades of genealogy research papers, or just a few.

It’s always important to have best practices in mind.

This 102-page, softcover book starts with “Top Secrets” from professional genealogists sharing how they have stayed organized. Tips include keeping a research log, recording what you find — and also where you did not find anything — using research checklists, and using systems that work for you.

Next comes “Habits to Make,” like citing your sources, making time to keep things organized, and keeping a master family tree, among others.
