RecordSearch 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 the collection

Linking to a specific collection

 * Enter the template coding in the usual manner with curly brackets, being sure to type "RecordSearch" this way:
 * Enter the collection number "collection #" after the pipe.
 * For example:


 * This is how the template looks on the page:
 * Notice the little box with the arrow at the top right hand corner at the end of the link which shows it being an external link.
 * Notice there is only one parameter "collection #"
 * Click on the link and it will take you to the collection.

Linking to a specific collection with a name
or:
 * Unless there is something in the text, you may not know what the collection is about because all you see is just a number.
 * The second parameter is a place to enter the collection name.
 * After the collection number, enter another pipe and copy and paste or type the collection name.
 * For example:
 * You can enter the template on one line or as shown above.
 * This is how the template looks on the page:

Browsing

 * When you click on the above link, you go to the entire collection.
 * If you would like to see all the records in the collection, you add the next parameter "access=browse"
 * For example:

or: This parameter allows us to see all the items in the collection. Clicking on the individual items will lead you to seeing the actual images of the pages of the items listed.
 * This is how it looks on the page:
 * As you can see it looks like the link with just the first two parameters above.
