We were looking at a record - https://www.familysearch.org/ark:/61903/1:1:QPR8-QL24 . When we check Image availability we are referred to a family history centre or an affiliate library. How does a Library become an affiliate? Is there a charge involved? What responsibilities does it entail?

    I am not connected with FamilySearch.

    There is a FamilySearch Blog which sets out the requirements. How to Become a FamilySearch Affiliate Library June 6, 2019. The contact email address is now affiliatelibraries@familysearch.org
