Full text search is wonderful. Unfortunately, there are many microfilms that are only available at a Family History Center. Will you be developing a full text search that can access these microfilms? Even if it is available only at a Family History Library it would be worth it.

    @NCVAresearch There is a dedicated group for Full Text Search Feedback.

    When you are at an FSC or affiliate library, you can already use Full-Text Search on those restricted DGS. I do it regularly.

    I'm curious as to what happens with I perform a Full Text Search and an image with a restricted DGS is considered to be part of the Results List. Does it just not appear? Does it appear, but when attempting to view the image you get a 'Restricted' message. I've yet to run across one of these so I'm wondering what to expect. I hope it's the latter
