In anticipation of the April 2 release of 1940 Census records from the National Archives, the U.S. Census Bureau will hold a webinar to provide the media with an overview of the 1940 Census release.

The webinar will highlight notable 1940 Census facts with corresponding information from the 2010 Census and provide a demonstration from the National Archives and Records Administration on accessing these records when they become available to the public.

The news conference will consist of a simultaneous audio conference and online presentation. Information on accessing the online presentation is provided below. Reporters will be able to ask questions once the presentation is complete. We suggest reporters log in and call in early.
