I live in the Shreveport, Louisiana Stake. I want to look at a record that can only be viewed in a Family History Center and all of the centers in the stake are closed.

    The basic guidelines for accessing records only available in a family history center are as follows:

    We have had several requests to remove record access restrictions as a result of the temporary closing of our Family History Library and family history centers due to COVID-19 precautions. Due to contractual obligations, we unfortunately cannot offer expanded external access to records restricted to family history centers and affiliate libraries. We apologize for this inconvenience.

     

    In the meantime, we encourage you to explore the vast record collections that are available on FamilySearch. Millions of new indexed records and images are added weekly. And if you haven’t used our new Explore Historical Images tools, you might be surprised at the potential discoveries you can make in our growing un-indexed image collections.

     We appreciate your patience, loyalty, and support.


    Some family history centers might be willing to open for appointment only based on the precautions set by local leadership.
