Eastern Necropolis Cemetery in Glasgow Scotland ledger books gone ?
I used to be able to look thru a scanned version of the Eastern Necropolis internment and lair purchase books (Glasgow Scotland), it's been an amazing resource for my family tree research.
For some reason, no matter what I enter in www.familysearch.org I can't seem to find these book images online any more. Can you please tell me if they have been removed from online access, or where/how I can view them.
Thank you so much.

Is this what you are looking for? : https://www.familysearch.org/search/catalog/1323530?availability=Family%20History%20Library
Records can be removed from FamilySearch at any time if the record owner requests it or if FS and the record owner are unable to negotiate an extension to the contract that allows FS to publish the records.

yes and no .... I did find this listing of the books I'm looking for, however this is only a listing of what books are available at what library location. Prior to this, I was actually able to view the contents of the scanned books online.
I was wondering if this option to view these ledger books online has been removed, and if they are still available to be viewed online where would I find them?

FYI
Welcome to the "Community.FamilySearch" Forum.
I am just another 'lowly' User/Patron ...
As has already been proffered by 'A van Helsdingen' ...
IF, that 'Link', that 'A van Helsdingen' has provided, is what you are 'looking' for; THEN, there DOES NOT appear to be any particular "Restriction(s)"; whereas, there DOES NOT appear to be a "Index", of the Records (as, there is NO "Magnify Glass" Icon, to the left of the "Camera" Icon); but, that said, the associated "Images", appear to be available/accessible.
As, there is NO 'Key' Icon, above the "Camera" Icon ... ( And, I had a 'look' at/through some. )
So ...
That Said ...
The "Records" do not appear to have been removed, from 'FamilySearch', they are still there.
Perhaps ...
You are just having problems/issues 'locating' them; because of/due to, the NEW "Search" (Records) feature/facility/function; and, resulting "Results" page/screen, in 'FamilySearch'.
IF, the latter is the case; THEN, ...
You are not alone ...
Many of us are "Struggling" with that ...
Just my thoughts.

Thanks for your comments Brett, yes it is rather frustrating.
Hopefully I, or someone else on here can figure out how to access them

You SHOULD be able to access those "Images" yourself.
Provided, that you are "Signed Into" 'FamilySearch' ...
Simply select that "Link", that 'A van Helsdingen' has provided:
https://www.familysearch.org/search/catalog/1323530?availability=Family%20History%20Library
ie. Which is the "Image", that I included in my 'Comment'
Then, go down that list of FHL Films; and, select the "Camera" Icon, next to the particular FHL Film that you would like to access/view.
That should then display the "Images" for that particular FHL Film.
[ You should be able to do that with each FHL Film ... ]
'Yes', it will be time consuming; as, there is NO "Index"; but, at least, the "Images", are there, 'On-Line'.
Question: Was there, an "Index", of some or all of those FHL Films, previously?
.................. [ And, if there was, such has subsequently been "Removed", from access/view ... ]
That would be odd; as, it is usually the "Images" that get "Removed", from access/view, rather than the "Index"; but, often it is BOTH, the "Index"; and, the "Images".
But ...
That Said ...
Stranger things have happened ...

As Brett has indicated, you are required to be signed in to FamilySearch in order to see the camera icon in the catalogue.
Click on the camera icon for the film you wish to access and you should be taken to the images.

I thought Brett must be looking at the Catalog page via his LDS account, as I was getting a page showing this collection had restricted viewing rights. Then I realised the reason: what Maureen has highlighted - I wasn't logged in (to my public account)! Yes, access is fine for me, too.
