The Family History Library
The Family History Library, across West Temple Boulevard from Temple Square is open to everyone, but primarily intended to enable Mormons to trace their ancestors and then baptize them into the faith by proxy. The world's most exhaustive genealogical library gives immediate access to birth and death records from over sixty countries, some dating back as much as five hundred years. All you need is a person's place of birth, a few approximate dates, and you're on your way; volunteers provide help if you need it, but leave you alone until you ask.
Opening time: Mon 8am–5pm, Tues– Sat 8am–9pm
