Godfrey Library to Drop HeritageQuest Online

"The Godfrey Memorial Library has long been one of the subscribing libraries
that offered in-home access to HeritageQuest Online. In fact, representatives
from the Godfrey Library have been quite aggressive in advertising this service
as one part of the Library's many services available for an annual membership
for a modest $35 per year. As a result, many genealogists who live all over the
country have become members of the Godfrey Memorial Library and paid the
membership fee, even though they had no plans to ever go to Connecticut to use
the library's services in person. They simply wanted to have in-home access to
HeritageQuest Online.

It seems ProQuest has decided that this "aggressive advertising" was a
violation of the terms and conditions of the contract with the Godfrey Memorial
Library. After some discussions between the two organizations, a decision was
made to not renew the contract.

Effective now, all new members who join the Godfrey Memorial Library will not
have access to HeritageQuest Online. All present library members will continue
to enjoy such access until either (1.) the end of their present membership or
(2.) December 31, 2006, whichever occurs first. This guarantees that all those
who have already purchased library membership for the primary purpose of
accessing HeritageQuest Online will indeed receive all the access that they
have paid for. They simply will not be able to renew that access in the future.


 ...I have created a HeritageQuest Online page in the Encyclopedia of
Genealogy. I have listed many libraries that offer free or for-a-fee access to
HeritageQuest Online, both remote in-home access and in-library only access.

You can see that page at http://www.eogen.com/HeritageQuestOnline"
