The FamilySearch Portal at the Visitors’ Center makes available at no cost many of the premium subscription genealogy sites most frequently used by researchers, such as Ancestry, British Newspaper Archive, Arkiv Digital, Fold 3, Irish Ancestors, Newspaper Archive and others.

There are also 46 FamilySearch computers on the floor and laptop plug-ins with Wi-Fi connections are available for those working on family research.

Volunteers can also guide guests in the use of a variety of scanners that have the capability of digitizing photos, negatives, slides, 8mm and Super 8 film. There are also oversized flatbed scanners to use.
