Linda,
 
I know of three options for digital Sanborn Maps:
 
1. The company that bought Sanborn provides digital files on demand - I
don't have a current phone number but here is an address and the contact
that I have used:
 
Tina Thomas
Vice President
E. Data Resources
3530 Post Road
Southport, CT 06490
 
2. Environmental Risk Information & Imaging Services provides digital
Sanborns - they may be limited to those maps that are in the public
domain. ERIIS is at 505 Huntmar Park Drive, Suite 200, Herndon, VA 22070.
Phone 800-989-0402.
 
3. By late fall, E. Data Resources and the Library of Congress should
have digital Sanborns available for one or two select cities. I think
that Chicago and Los Angeles will be the first geographies released under
a ten-year project which is supposed to make the maps from both
organizations available via the Internet and other electronic media. In
the Jan./Feb. issue of Mercator's World my article on fire insurance
maps, which has more details on this project, is scheduled to come out.
 
Best wishes,
