Repository talk:Family History Center

Change to item URL format [19 May 2019]

It appears that the standard URL format for access to source materials has changed. Consider the two sources

• Source:Annual Report of the Society for the History of the Germans in Maryland
• Source:Society for the History of the Germans in Maryland. Annual Report of the Society for the History of the Germans in Maryland

Neither Family History Center link works

• for 'Annual' --> http://www.familysearch.org/eng/library/fhlcatalog/supermainframeset.asp?display=titledetails&titleno=807789
• for 'Society'--> http://www.familysearch.org/eng/library/fhlcatalog/supermainframeset.asp?display=titledetails&titleno=151609

The new URL format appears to be

• for 'Annual' --> https://www.familysearch.org/search/catalog/151609?availability=Family%20History%20Library
• for 'Society' --> https://www.familysearch.org/search/catalog/807789?availability=Family%20History%20Library

So, it appears that the identifiers have been retained, but the format has completely changed. --ceyockey 21:42, 19 May 2019 (UTC)

P.S. I will chnage the two sources noted here in the near future.
