Types of FamilySearch Locations
FamilySearch Centers
FamilySearch centers provide tools and resources for researching your genealogy and family history. They offer personalized help, access to computers and premium family history websites, and images of historical records that may not be available elsewhere.

Affiliate libraries can be public or higher education libraries, archives, museums, cultural centers, or genealogical or historical societies.
