Notes:

Viewing a full record/page image you have seen within the last 30 days costs no credits.

Credits have no monetary value - they are a means of ensuring fair access.

The total amount you spend in order to get the information you require will obviously vary depending on which features you use to get there. e.g. If you do a standard census search and then are able to tell which is the correct person from the results list and decide only to view the full record, it will cost a total of 5 credits. However, if you do an advanced census search (5 credits) then view the full transcript record (5 credits) then also decide to view the original page image (5 credits) the total would cost 15 credits. Of course, you will have saved time and credits by not viewing other records and you have got a .pdf of the orignal page for your documentation.
