DearMYRTLE: FHL Catalog To be Updated Daily Online: "DearREADERS,
Having attended the FGS (Federation of Genealogical Societies) annual conference 3-6 Sept 2003 in Orlando this past week, ol' Myrt here is just bursting at the seams to tell you about the neat things she's learned. Couldn't sleep much last night planning upcoming columns.

#1 AND MOST EXCITING: Paul Starkey told us that the Family History Library Catalog located online at www.familysearch.org is now scheduled to be updated every 3 hours during the work week, a minimum of once a day. Previously this most up-to-date catalog version was accessible only at the reference desk in the Family History Library in Salt Lake City, Utah.

This renders totally obsolete the CDs and microfiche versions of the FHL Catalog found in your local Family History Center. "
