When I was looking for my obit from San Jose, I tried Ask A Librarian as I always do this first when looking for an obit and they told me they did not provide that service and how to go about getting the record myself which I ended up doing. I have noticed lately Ask A Librarian is not as accommodating as they have been in the past. Recently, the reply from a Southern library they said due to lack of personnel they do not provide the service and I always made a donation to the library for the obits I request. I just also got the same response recently from a Genealogy Society and they gave me names of fee for hire researchers and having done this previously I passed on it as it was quite costly and half the information she provided and charged me for I had already given to her. Go figure. That is why our listmembers are so GREAT!!
