Eastern Monroe Public Library is a member of the LDS FamilySearch Affilate Library Program.  As a member of the LDS FamilySearch Affilate Library Program patrons had access to its vast microfilm collection. As of 31 August 2017 FamilySearch has suspended microfilm circulation services.
 Replacing the microfilm service, FamilySearch announced the next step which is to extend access to millions of restricted FamilySearch digital images to patrons of affiliated libraries. Patrons will have access to images previously limited to viewing only in Family History Centers.
The extension of this service to Eastern Monroe Public Library will add exclusive access to approximately twenty-five percent of the 1.5 + million rolls of microfilm(1.5 billion images) already converted to digital images.
FamilySearch digital images can only be accessed through family history centers and affiliated libraries.
