FamilyLearn Library Available
We’re happy to launch a browse and search interface to FamilyLearn, the world’s most enjoyed family story library. We’re in the process of migrating thousands of photos and books from the previous system and so not all the content is showing up in searches at this time. It will soon.
Two notes of interest.
First, we’ve only launched title-based search. People, author and full-text search will be added in the future.
Second, we’ve made all the books private by default (except for invitees of course). Some of you may want to share your history with the world. You can do this by searching for the title of your book, clicking on “Edit Public Information,” and deselecting “Make book contents private.” Finally, click “Save” and your done.

I have a question about something not covered in anything I have read here. I have a son-in-law who not only is a techie for a newspaper but also a professional graphic artist.
My mom’s diary has surfaced and we wish to create a book around it, he will design and layout it himself. Is this ok? Could he import it to your system rather than work within your system?
Another question, entirely different. Why can’t I get the pricing page (for additional books) to print?
Is the turn over time still about 10 days after entire book is submitted by us? We have a Christmas deadline.

Louise,
Great question. Importing a pdf directly into our system is on the horizon, but not available yet (not going to serve your purposes before Christmas).
Currently, the only way to do what you’d like to do is to turn every page that your son-in-law designs into an image, upload it to the MemoryPress photo album and add the images as full-bleed pages.
You can turn off the table of contents page, but you’d need to use MemoryPress’ built in title page and dedication page. You can adjust these pages quite a bit inside of MemoryPress (fonts, sizes, etc.).
I hope this helps. Sounds like a great project. I wish I had my Mom’s journals to do this.
