It does not come under a heading OPR on their site, the information is there.
Not all of the OPRs are on the LDS web site,but the FHCs have a CD at their facilities which has many more. Some of my Dewars are not in the IGI,but are on the CD under Scottish Church Records. Scotlands People also have a more complete data base of OPRs,I believe some are still being added as they are found.

Dear List: I am looking for any information on my ggg grandmother, Hannah Malcolm, born in Dumbarton in 1817. I had found some christening information on Hannah and her siblings (all with exact dates included), on the Familysearch website, but they are all patron submitted entries, so thought I should verify the information. I was then recommended to the "Scotlandspeople" website and did a search of the old parish records, where I expected to see all the same information repeated. I could only find christening information on one of her siblings, Mary Malcolm (c. 28 August 1808). Could anyone suggest some reasons why all the IGI information was not included on the extracted parish records on the "Scotlandspeople"? Is the website not complete? I would love to claim the Malcolms I have found in the IGI but do not want to do so until I am sure the information is correct. Any suggestions as to where I might look next? The siblings (from the IGI) are: Jean c. 1823 Mary c. 1808 Margaret c. 1812 Philip Henry c. 1821 Hannah c. 1817 James c. 1809 Samuel c. 1814 Elizabeth c. 1810 All in Dumbarton. Any help would be really appreciated, Anita Queensland, Australia
