:Microfilm:&nbsp; We also have quite a few rolls of microfilm that we have retained when patrons ordered them on indefinite loan.&nbsp;&nbsp; .
:*Microfilm:&nbsp; We have quite a few films in our Center that patrons paid to keep them there indefinitely.&nbsp;&nbsp; Most of them are from all different random localities.&nbsp; However, we have a lot of films of some specific types of records.&nbsp;&nbsp; They are:
:*Microfiche:&nbsp; When a patron orders records on microfiche, they stay in the Family History Center permanently, so we have 27 years worth of miscellaneous records on fiche.&nbsp; Plus we have the following complete collections: Old Parochial Scottish Church Records, Accelerated Indexing System,&nbsp; and the Microfiche Reference Collection, which is a collection of the 100+ most used books at the Family History Library in Salt Lake City, Utah.
:#City Directories for New York City and Brooklyn (We also have some of these on fiche.)
:#Indexes for birth, marriage and death certificates in New York City.
:#Misc. naturalization records from NY counties.
:#Monmouth County NJ records.
Please be aware that we do not have all of the microfilms for these areas or subjects.&nbsp; You can know for sure if we have a specific microfilm by attempting to order it at www.familysearch.org/films.&nbsp; If it is a film we already have at our Center, you will get a pop-up message so indicating.
