The Carlsbad City Library is still having problems with AncestryLibraryEdition. Randomly while in AncestryLibraryEdition, Internet Explorer closes down. Are others still having problems?

Does anyone know if and when the new Canadian Border Crossings,
1895-1956 database will be available in Ancestry LE? I've only been
able to find the new database in the Ancestry.com personal subscription.
See News Release below:
Ancestry.com News Release:
"Ancestry.com, the world's largest online resource for family history,
today announced the addition of the first and only online collection of
more than 4 million names of individuals who crossed the U.S.-Canadian
border between 1895 and 1956. These historical records are the latest
addition to Ancestry.com's Immigration Records Collection, which also
includes more than 100 million names from the largest online collection
of U.S. passenger lists, spanning 1820 to 1960."

We are certainly having the same problem, and I hear from our IT people that Ancestry claims the problem is on our end, not theirs. I'm having trouble believing that's accurate, considering the messages on this list.

I haven't seen anyone suggest looking in Williamsburg for accommodations.
The conference center is a simple, straight-shot, 45-minute drive down I-64.
Maybe you could squeeze in a walk down Duke of Gloucester Street in the
historic area (free since it is a public street), or maybe even a few hours
at the Jamestown settlement. After all, the conference logo promotes the
Jamestown 400th.

Subject: [Genealib] NGS - hotel
Is anyone going to NGS this year who might want to share a room and
save costs? My mother passed away about eight weeks ago and things have
been a bit hectic. I am supposed to go, but was only able to get a Sunday
to Wednesday at the conference hotel in early January and haven't been able
to really look since and everything is pretty booked. I may end up staying
in my rental car for the duration, but thought I'd check and see if anyone
may be interested in sharing some space for a few days.

This is from today's NGS newsletter
" The exhibit hall is sold out, as
are the Marriott, Omni, and Crowne Plaza Hotels. However, rooms are still
available at the Radisson Hotel, 301 W. Franklin Street, Richmond, VA. For
reservations call 888-201-1718. The Radisson has competitive rates and is eight
blocks west of the Richmond Convention Center. "
They say they will run bosses to the center from the Radison.
