==== Book and Film Numbers Used by the Family History Library ==== | ==== Book and Film Numbers Used by the Family History Library ==== | ||
The Family History Library has used a few different methods to number its growing collection of books and films since the library started in 1894. Formerly used numbers are still found in old family records in the lists of sources for the data. These old numbers for books and films are no longer used, so the current numbers for the books and films must be determined.<br> | |||
