The NYPL has scanned over 5000 Sanborn sheets from NYC
<http://digitalgallery.nypl.org/nypldigital/dgtitle_tree.cfm?title_id=1926663&level=2&tword=>.
On the docket are the remaining public domain New York State Sanborns,
roughly 6000 sheets.

Here at BYU, I have linked several Sanborn Fire Insurances sites, by
state, within my libguide. They include, Florida, Georgia, Kentucky,
Missouri, Nevada, North Carolina, Pennsylvania, South Carolina, Texas,
and of course Utah. I hope to add more as time permits. If you'd like
to view what's been done, go to, lib.byu.edu <http://lib.byu.edu> -
Click on "Maps &
Gazetteers" (lower right) - then click on the "Maps Online" tab - and
scroll down below the European Maps. Click on the links or mouse over
the descriptions as you wish.
Thanks,
Rick Grapes

I bought the Michigan set about 10 years ago, then just this year
bought
Michigan again in the "Geo" edition. I also have the major US cities
set in the Geo Edition. http://libguides.lib.msu.edu/__sanborn
<http://libguides.lib.msu.edu/sanborn>
I noticed recently (or was reminded) that Center for Research Libraries
has the full country on microfilm available for loaning.

I was wondering how many states have digitized Sanborn maps for their
states.
