Leaving a book for the years to come is simple. Send (as you must do) 2 copies to the National Library, Send others to the Society of Genealogists in LOndon, GSSA, and any other sort of repository you know of. Books endure, our electronic stuff changes so rapidly and becomes obsolete within 20 years that it is undependable I think. Great to get it done though. And one to Lincolnshire? My grandfather came from there too. And I have sent his story to their County Archives.
