RELIC NOW OFFERS INDEFINITE MICROFILM LOANS
Through a recent agreement with the Genealogical Society of
Utah, RELIC can now offer indefinite loans on microfilms from the Family
History Library in Salt Lake City. RELIC has been a participant in the
FHL microfilm rental program since 2001, but until now could not retain
them after the second renewal. Now researchers with a long-term
project can arrange to have microfilm retained here for as long as
necessary, paying a total fee of $18 per film. In addition, RELIC now
has the option of obtaining microfiche from the collections of the
Family History Library. For further details, please contact the RELIC
staff at 703-792-4540 or [log in to unmask] <mailto:[log in to unmask]> .
