Each week, I try to keep track of the number of Full-Text Search collections (indexed, searchable) and the Images collections (browsable but not searchable) -- see Sections 1) and 2) below. In addition, I list the genealogy historical record collections (often name-indexed) that are added, removed, and/or updated on FamilySearch and listed on the Historical Record Collection list -- See Section 3.
1) As of 26 December 2025, there are now 6,619 searchable image collections on FamilySearch Full-Text Search this week, an increase of 1 from last week. There are over 1.620 BILLION "results" in the collections. There are 868 collections from the United States, 147 for Canada, 236 for England, and 266 for Ireland. It is not possible to see which collections are new.
2) As of 19 December 2025, there are now 24,515 browsable (but not indexed or transcribed) image collections on FamilySearch Images this week, a decrease of 39 from last week. There are over 5.876 BILLION images in these collections. There are 2,103 collections from the United States, 6,958 from Europe and 224 from Canada. It is not possible to see which collections are new. I wonder where the removed collections go - to Full-Text Search and/or Historical Records?
3) As of 26 December 2025, there are 3,429 historical record collections on FamilySearch (a decrease of 2 from last week) on the Signed In screen (and 3,429 on the Signed Out screen).

===================================
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:
- 2 removed entries
- 0 added entries
- 74 updated entries
- 13 entries with more or fewer images
- 3 entries with more or fewer records
The FamilySearch website says there are 3,4291 total entries on the list (after signing in). Marshall's list says there are 3,429 (after signing in). They are definitely in-sync this week.
