This is a template
It is used whenever you want to create a link to a specific collection, book, etc in the Family History Library. It consists of three parameters.
 * Collection number
 * Name of Collection
 * To Browse

 * Enter the template coding in the usual manner with curly brackets, being sure to type "RecordSearch" this way:
 * Enter the record number or file number in "record number" after the pipe.

 * Click on the link and it will take you to the collection.

or:
 * When you see this link with just the one parameter, it has no name so you will not know what the collection is about.
