There is indeed copy for all
of them - we know, we just cataloged
all of ours. It took a good many months
because there are so many maps, and also
because we had to change all the copy
to AACR2 and add coordinates to each record.

We've found it to be very worth while -
facsimiles are quite popular with our
users.
