Here at LC we also subscribe to the national package. It is one of our
heaviest used tools.   Most (not all)  researchers are more than happy
to use the black and white .pdf version of the microfilm rather than the
color originals.

Carlos,
We have the national version and we feel it was worth the money. We're
finding that our Architecture Dept. is the heaviest user. But it is
being used in many other departments and schools at SU.

Does anyone have a subscription to the digital version of the Sanborn
Maps available via Proquest/UMI?

If so, what do you think of the database?  Does it get a lot of use?
Is
it worth the money?
