changes are part of life.

We have decided to extend our mission for another six months so we are moving closer to the Family History Library. Our new address is 74 W. 200 N. Apt B, Salt Lake City, UT 84103. After being in the Family History Library for the past nine mounths and serving in the Guest Services Zone for the most of that time we have heard that some changes are on the way. They will not be happening until the first part of November. They are telling us that the Guest Services Zone will not be its own zone any longer and that we will become part of a larger zone called or to be part of "Library Resource Services." We many still be doing some of the same type of work we have done in the past or we may be transferred to another type of work. The letter we have been given says Library Resource Services will have responsibility for the physical assets of the Library and providing the help to use them. They will have responsibility for facility support, the managment of the collection (books and microfilm), the computers, printers, readers and other equipment in the Library. This group will also provide help for all of the above services, including helping the patrons to use the the computers, finding books, using readers, etc. Library Resouce Services will manage the book and film collection, including the conservation lab and digitization efforts in the Library. Additionally, Library Resource Services will have responsibility for photo duplication, and the information desk, exit desk, and the temple desk in the lobby. They will continue to provide the variety of services delivered by the accsess services in the past, although split among Guest Services and Records Access.
Whatever we will be doing for the rest of of our mission will be the Lord's will. And He will help and guide us in doing the best we can. May our Heavenly Father bless and keep you all. Love Elder and Sister Larsen
