The Montana State Genealogical Society recently awarded the Great Falls Public Library with the Alan Huntsman Award for 2023. 
The Al Huntsman Award is given by the MSGS in acknowledgment for dedicated service to the genealogical community by a non-genealogist. The Library was nominated by the Great Falls Genealogy Society. 
In their nomination they stated, "From the first (library) director to the current director, our Library and Genealogy Society have formed a close working relationship. So much so that in the future remodel of the Library they are including us." 
Susie McIntyre, director of the Great Falls Library, said she felt honored to receive the award on the library's behalf.
"I have loved our partnership with the Great Falls Genealogy Society since I first started at the library," McIntyre said. "The amount of work that the Genealogy Society does to maintain our heritage and to connect people with the past, which really means to help connect them to the present, is astounding."
