    2. I'm hoping to avoid an hour's drive to order the films and then more drives to go look at them as they come in (they rarely come in in one batch). If I do go, I'm happy to do lookups for others so as not to waste the gas on a quick look at 2 or 3 films. Someday, with luck, they'll be on line! Diane

    3. Hi I'm in Australia and I have to travel over an hour to my nearest LDS (my regional library or local family history society are further). It costs $6.00A for each film and we have 6 weeks to read same. The LDS Library is only open 2 days a week for a couple of hours, so you really have to put yourself out and make the effort to get there during those 6 weeks. I wouldn't ask anyone else to read the films for me as I have found so many other relations whilst doing the reading. Had one film which as due back that day and I just wanted to finish it (had about 10 frames) which, fortunately, I was able to do, as I found my grandmother's baptism, something I never thought I'd ever find - and this was on the third last frame. Thank goodness by this stage there was only the LDS librarian and myself in the rooms - as I'm sure the shout for joy could have been heard all over town. The librarian was delighted as she had seen me order in and read so many films without success. These are the benefits of doing the research yourself - you get added bonuses.
