====================================

My friend and SDGS colleague, Marshall, has come up with a way to determine which collections are ADDED, DELETED or UPDATED, and to alphabetize the entries in each category. Thanks to Marshall for helping me out here!

Marshall notes that there are:

  • 0 removed entries
  • 1  added entries 
  • 7 updated entries
  • 8 entries with more or fewer images 
  • 2 entries with more or fewer records

The FamilySearch website says there are 3408 total entries on the list (without signing in). Marshall's list says there are 3409 (without signing in).  They are not in-sync this week.

There are now 3,905 searchable image collections on FamilySearch Full-Text Search this week, an increase of 24 from last week.

There are now 26,805 browsable image collections on FamilySearch Images this week.
