The Family History Library has very few of the state archives records on microfilm. The state archives makes photocopies and performs limited searches of indexed records for a fee, but it does not circulate microfilms of land and vital records. The guide to the collection is ''Guide to Records in the New York State Archives'' (1981; reprint, Albany, New York: New York State Archives, 1982; Family History Library book {{FHL|29264|title-id|disp=974.7 A3ns}}). An expanded 1993 edition is available from the New York State Archives. | The Family History Library has very few of the state archives records on microfilm.
