Planning Ahead for the Worldwide Indexing Event

I like to plan ahead and I'm planning to participate in the Worldwide Indexing Event by indexing at least one batch between 8:00 p.m. EDT on July 20 and 7:59 p.m. EDT on July 21.  Won't you join me and thousands of others?

The goal for this Event is for 50,000 indexers and arbitrators to submit at least one batch each in that 24-hour period.  Imagine the accomplishment, not to mention the thousands of new records, that will become available sooner than later.

If you haven't indexed before, take a few moments now to learn how, to practice a little, and be ready to index and submit your batch on July 21.  (New indexers can visit https://familysearch.org/indexing/ to learn more about how to joint the FamilySearch indexing effort.)

I hope you'll put this historic event on your calendar and plan to participate.  Spread the word and invite your friends and family to participate, too.  Working together we can make a huge difference. 

The event begins at 00:00 coordinated universal time (UTC) on July 21, which is 6:00 p.m. mountain daylight time (MDT or Utah time) on Sunday, July 20.  It ends 24 hours later, at 23:59 UTC (or 5:59 p.m. MDT) on Monday, July 21.  Local start times are below.

One batch is all it takes. Don’t miss your chance on July 20 and 21 to be part of this history-making event! Plan now to get involved and add your name to the record-setting legacy!
