Ken,
If you now have ArcGIS, you should also have access to ESRI Data and
Maps DVDs. In the usa/other folder, there are index files for 1:250K,
1:100K, and 1:24K scales.
See http://www.lib.ncsu.edu/gis/search/search.php?q=quadrangle&rk=1&s=ds
<http://www.lib.ncsu.edu/gis/search/search.php?q=quadrangle&rk=1&s=ds> for
more info about these layers.
The NC Geologic Survey did something like what you are describing
several years ago at
http://www.geology.enr.state.nc.us/maps/24k_index_page.html
Best Regards,
Jeff Essic

Now that we have ArcGIS installed, I'm envisioning an application where
I can log geologic mapping for the state (Utah): Click on the
quadrangle, and up comes a listing of geologic maps for the area,
whether the quadrangle itself or smaller-scale maps that include the
quad area. This seems like the kind of application that someone would
already have done (for another state if not for mine), so I wonder if
anyone can provide me with some guidance. For one thing, where might I
find a file for the grid of Utah topographic quadrangles that can
imported into ArcGIS?
