Reminder: Family Search Microfilm Rental Ends This Week

Just a reminder that after 80 years of microfilming records, the Latter Day Saints is discontinuing its microfilm rentals this week on Thursday, 7 September 2017. Due to the costs of reproducing and mailing microfilms this loaning system is ending.

The LDS has already digitized over 1.5 million of their existing microfilms and those images are now searchable on the Family Search website. The remaining microfilms are projected to be digitized by 2020.

Future record acquisitions by the LDS will immediately digitized.
