FamilySearch affiliate libraries are located in over 1,850 locations across 25 countries around the world. They offer a wealth of resources to those interested in researching their family history.
While each facility may offer different resources, there are several services that are common among them. At most affiliate libraries you can:
- View FamilySearch digital limited access historical records.
- Access local and national resources.
- Receive research assistance from staff.
- Request materials available through interlibrary loan.
- Attend family history classes.
Because the specific services offered in each location will vary, it is a good idea to contact your local library for more information on what is available before you visit.
Note: If you go to an affiliate library, please be aware that access rights can change as FamilySearch renegotiates contracts with record custodians. Therefore, affiliate libraries could gain or lose access to some record images over time.
Note: Some affiliate locations are not currently findable in the search. We are working on an update that will ensure that all are included.
