I can certainly value the service over having to travel all over the country, but I am finding library ILL very useful and as one gets better at the query process, the answers seem to become more complete. A great and helpful book for searching is The Genealogist's Companion, from which I have learned a lot about how to search and research. And I love the wonderful volunteers of Random Acts of Genealogical Kindness in various states. They are the best at helping, and explaining searches, etc. that I have run into (this group is great, too!) and one can make smal and/or regular donations to them for their kind assistance.<br><br>Paulette<br><br><br><blockquote style="border-left: 2px solid rgb(0, 0, 255); padding-left: 5px; margin-left: 0px;">-----Original Message-----

<div>If my local public library has Ancestry available in the library edition,
how does that differ from the subscription I now have, which is the
basic plus census? Would I be able to access the library edition on
my home computer or only at the library? Would I be able to save
$$$? </div>

<div>It's not in the library yet but is being considered.</div>
