<br>At least some of the Centres do not provide opening times. In most centres the phone is only connected during opening times, so it may be difficult to actually make contact and find out when the Centre is open. In addition, the Centres usually do not have provision for mail enquiries. There is also some information in the FamilySearch Wiki '''[https://www.familysearch.org/en/wiki/Category:FamilySearch_Centers Category:FamilySearch Centers]''', but not for all Centres, and Affiliate Libraries are listed separately, see External links below. You could also try [https://www.familysearch.org/en/fieldops/familysearch-support-contact-us FamilySearch Support Contact Us] for your geographic area.
 
'''Update''' 17 Jan. 2023. Members of the Church of Jesus Christ of Latter-Day Saints have additional access at Church meetinghouses worldwide.<ref> Ken Richins - NAO Tech Support Lead [https://community.familysearch.org/en/discussion/comment/490684/#Comment_490684 FamilySearch Center's are few around me] ''FamilySearch Community Forum'' 23 January 2023.

'''Always confirm opening times prior to a visit''', as the website details, even if available, may not be up to date. Also confirm the address. Website details for some Centres do not include the address. (For one Affiliate Library noted, which is known to operate at two different addresses, only one address appeared on the FamilySearch web details, which was different to the information appearing on the Affiliate Library's website, although this has now been corrected.)
Society of Genealogists is a FamilySearch '''Affiliate Library'''.
The Society of Genealogists '''closed''' 17 July 2021 for a "few months" as it is moving to a new location, which should be in London somewhere. From mid May 2022 there is limited access for SoG members in the temporary premises. The new premises at London, N1 are due to be open in the summer of 2023.
