[Genealib] IGI microfiche--1988

[Barbara Kiersh]

Michael,

The Jacksonville Public Library is a lending outlet (I guess that's the
best way to describe this relationship) of the Family History Center. 
We exclusively use their website rather than any CDs, microfiche, or any
other print material, as they not only have it all online, it's kept
up-to-date.  One thing I personally prefer Ancestry LE for though, is
the SSDI.  Ancestry gives more information in the record (such as place
of last residence and when the card was issued) than the FHC does.  I
see no reason to waste good cabinet space.

Is there any reason to keeep the 1988 edition of the IGI microfiche?
Isn't it all online now in the FHL computer catalog. It takes up a lot
of cabinet space that could be used for other material.
