:'''Update c 22 October 2019'''. All references to "Sign in to Familysearch.org as a member of The Church of Jesus Christ of Latter-day Saints" appear to have been removed, to be replaced by the following wording for signed in, non-LDS church members: "You may be able to view this image by visiting one of our partners' sites or the legal record custodian (fees may apply)". (FamilySearch article.<ref>[https://www.familysearch.org/en/help/helpcenter/article/what-are-the-image-restrictions-in-historical-records What are the image restrictions in Historical Records?] FamilySearch Help Center article.</ref>)
:'''Note'''. For records restricted to LDS church members only, consultants at FamilySearch Centres have been instructed "Consultants should not sign in to allow members of the public to access restricted images. Such sharing can violate contracts between FamilySearch and the records custodian".<ref>FitzPatrick, Bill [https://community.familysearch.org/s/question/0D54V00005DqGH6SAN/does-anyone-know-why-these-sersheim-church-record-images-are-not-available-at-the-fhl-i-was-connected-to-their-wifi-note-the-lock-next-to-the-camera-icon-and-the-comment-you-may-be-able-to-view-this-image-by-visiting-one-of-our-partners-sites-or-the?language=en_US Does anyone know why these Sersheim Church record images are not available at the FHL?] ''FamilySearch Questions Forum'' scroll to reply by Jeff Wiseman dated 23 February 2021.

:In the past, signed-in LDS church members had access to a wider range of records than non LDS church members, and this situation continues. In particular, LDS church members were able to view the India church records originating from the British Library on their home computers, and it is believed this is still the current situation.
