[OPLINLIST] Genealogy Research Policies

[Becky Hill]

With the Ohio Obituary Index, each of the 60 libraries have their own
individual policy for charging for obits.  Although that doesn't directly
answer your question, it would give you some idea of the variety of ways the
Ohio public libraries handle this.

Subject: [OPLINLIST] Genealogy Research Policies

 

I am reviewing our library's genealogy research policy to see if it needs to
be updated. I am curious how other libraries in Ohio handle research in
their genealogy section. Any assistance would greatly be appreciated.

How does your library handle request for genealogy research and/or copies? 

Do you charge for research? How much?

Do you charge for scanned copies emailed to genealogists? How?

How much do you charge for copies?

Do you have limits on how many requests can be made at one time?

Thank you for your assistance.
