[[Hiring a Professional Researcher|Lists of qualified professional researchers]] for various geographical areas are available from the FamilySearch Library. Archives or family history societies may also provide lists of people who can do research for you. Jewish and other genealogical periodicals usually contain names and addresses of people or companies that do research for hire. Researchers can also be found on genealogy Internet sites.

| *''Photocopies.'' The FamilySearch Library and some other libraries offer limited [[Photoduplication Services|photoduplication services]] for a small fee. Books protected by copyright cannot be copied in their entirety. However, a few pages can usually be copied for personal research (you must specify the exact pages you need). The library does not copy large portions of a microfilm. To get a copy of a major portion of a film, write to the archive where the original material is stored for permission and then contact the library with your request.
