[Genealib] Microfilm

[Brannan, Joyce A.]

Heritage Quest used to have a membership service that would lend films to individuals as well as libraries.  I used them in both capacities.

Perhaps, it was the American Genealogical Lending Library (AGLL) that the person was thinking of.   It no longer exists but it would lend microfilm to Libraries or Individuals who had a membership.    They had all the censuses, most NARA films, as well as filmed books.

	Mid-Continent Library will loan microfilm in the state of Missouri only.  We always go through a library's interlibrary loan department.  We will not loan directly if a patron calls.

	It sounds like you are describing the Mid-Continent Public Library, which does InterLibraryLoan genealogy books; I am not so sure about microfilm, having never used it.

	Is it true that one of the genealogical libraries in the Midwest will send microfilm directly to a library if a patron requests this service? The patron doesn't go through ILL for it - he/she knows the particular information for the microfilm, contacts the particular genealogical library to send it to the patron's library, and the patron pays the sending library the amount required to send the film to the patron's library.
	 
	Has anyone heard of this service?
	 
	Thanks,
