Dear Maps-L:

Does anyone know of a library anywhere that subscribes to all of the
"Digital Sanborn Maps" collection from ProQuest?

We just get North Carolina, and I suspect that most places get only
their own state and maybe some adjacent states, which was generally the
collection policy when these were purchased on film.

Also, if there is a library with complete access, does the licensing
policy of ProQuest (and/or the policy of the library) allow any
unaffiliated person from off the street (e.g,. an out-of-town visitor)
to visit the library and use this collection.

Finally, does anyone know of a library that has the compete set of
film?  I believe LC does (in addition to the original paper copies), but
curious if there are other places.

thanks,
   Mark
