Sarah, It is the International Genealogical Index. It's a series of records (birth, marriage, christening, and some census) which have been compiled by the LDS. I have the sets for the US, Wales, Germany, Switzerland, and Canada if you would like a look-up. The US, is done by counties, Canada by province, Ireland and Wales by counties, and Germany is done alphabetically by surname.
