The Minnesota Genealogical Society has announced its 2015 webinar series, and it looks like a good one. Once a month, from February to December, with the exception of July, we can watch a free webinar to help us with our research.
The speakers include some of my favourites like Thomas MacEntee, Liza Alzo, Cyndi Ingle, Katherine R. Willson, and Canadian Kathryn Lake Hogan who will talk about finding your American ancestors using Canadian records. With this line-up, I suspect all the speakers will be excellent.

March 4 – Midwestern & Plains State Level Census Records – Paula Stuart-Warren.
