[Genealib] is ancestry.com a library option?

[Colleen Ringel]

Ancestry Library Edition contains everything that is on Ancestry.com  
except anything that was contributed by the general population.  
According to Proquest, things like OneWorldTree, the message boards,  
etc. that have not been verified by Ancestry.com is not included.
