Some of my research was done back in the day when making a paper copy of every record was cost prohibitive. Some of those records have been microfilmed by the Family History Library. I've been going back and in some cases, scanning the entire record off the microfilm and getting lots of really interesting information.
Is there something you only partially looked at before that perhaps now you could copy more extensively?
If you can do this without mental groans, remembering how hard it was to sling those heavy courthouse books around, and comparing your costly (time & money) photocopies to those lovely images online, you're a better person than I am. I do appreciate the availability but I gnash my teeth just a little.
