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 20 March 2026, there are now 6,654 searchable and full-text transcribed image collections on FamilySearch Full-Text Search this week, a decrease of 11 from last week. There are over 1.914 BILLION "results" in the collections. It is not possible to see which collections are new.
2) As of 20 March 2026, there are now 24,610 browsable (some indexed, none transcribed) image collections on FamilySearch Images this week, an increase of 13 from last week. There are over 5.938 BILLION images in these collections. There are 2,101 collections from the United States, 6,903 from Europe and 221 from Canada. It is not possible to see which collections are new. 
3) As of 20 March 2026, there are 3,433 Historical Record Collections (many indexed, browsable) on FamilySearch (an increase of 1 from last week) on the Signed In screen (and 3,433 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:
- 3,433 Historical Record Collection entries
- 0 removed entries
- 1 added entries
- 22 updated entries
- 15 entries with more or fewer images
- 0 entries with more or fewer records
Marshsll's list shows 3,433 Historical Record Collections this week, an increase of 1 collection. The image above shows 3ollections, so the Image number is in sync with Marshall's list number.
