new family history center

Where can I find details for setting-up a new family history center? Authorization, costs, etc.

Ken Richins - NA FSCS Specialty Lead

The FamilySearch Center Operations Guide 2023. The short answer is the Stake president fils out the Create a Center form link in the guide and has the Facilities manager fill it out and sign. Then the stake president forwards the document to the Area FamilySearch representative for their signature, and they send it to Headquarters to fulfill the order. The only cost is the needed remodeling of the room and adding the networking infrastructure and furniture, which is covered by the facility's budget. The Equipment is all sent on loan at no local expense.
