Sharon - that's an outdated link. There is a new link, but the system is currently having problems.

Thank you so much. I'll wait for the new link & hope the technical problems will resolved soon.

As far as I've been told, the current link will still be used when the system is repaired.

Will you be able to email photocopies of some pages from a periodical in your collection? I am looking for some pages with data about the town of Wladyslawow in volumes II and IV of the quarterly "Landsmen."

@Sven45 if you try to use the OLD link, you will receive a message that the form is closed. That's because it was replaced with a new form and a new link. Go here:

The direct link is helpful. Here is the current (as of Jan 2023) page for the lookup service:
As with this article, it states, "This service is available in 15 languages to help you access records from countries worldwide."
What languages are available? Is Slovak available? When I access the form, I see three languages (English, Spanish, and Portuguese) -- see screenshot.
Thank you,

I have not received materials requested via Research WIKI, initial request made 11/22/2022 for which I received email acknowledging my request. Two subsequent request in last week and non emails have been received. Is the service down/unavailable or no longer in service?

What name will the email come from so I can search my inbox? I get 100 emails per day and it will be problematic if I need to review a week’s worth of emails without knowing sender.
thx

When you make the request, you will receive an acknowledgment email almost instantly from that same email address.

I must not have submitted completely, as I don’t have any emails from that sender

Any news on the status of the Record Lookup Service?????
"When you make the request, you will receive an acknowledgment email almost instantly from that same email address." No acknowledgement email is being received.
Also no response to requests at all.

@Kerijy I received the automated acknowledgment when I requested just a couple of days ago. Are you using the NEWEST form? I think the older form is still floating around, but only the newest one works.

Thanks for your reply. Will try that.

@ralphsayre The Library Lookup Service allows us to request a record, free, if the Library has the record and the right to share it. There is no charge.
I'm unfamiliar with the records you are requesting. I suggest you use the form and submit the request. If the Library is able to share it, you should receive it in a few days, by email, at no charge. FamilySearch Library Record Lookup Service Form
