New Historical Record Collections at FamilySearch - November 2011

...
I last listed the new or updated collections on the FamilySearch Historical Collections website on 1 November, when there were 812 collections on the list. During November, these Historical Record Collections have been added to make a total of 891 collections as of 1 December:
In the list above, I tried to identify many of the collections as newly added by comparing them to last month's listing. When FamilySearch sends their email notifications to interested parties, they identify whether they are new or previously existing collections - they don't say which collections are added to the list for the first time..

There are 89 items on the list above, but only 79 newly added databases (according to FamilySearch) since 1 November, so I have missed 19. Oh well! I will update the list as I receive more information about the new databases.

All FamilySearch Historical Record Collections can be accessed at https://www.familysearch.org/search/collection/list. You can see the date that collections were recently added or updated by clicking on the "Last Updated" link. However, there is no indicator whether the specific collections are newly added.
