They have the Sanborn maps on microfilm that you could borrow. ********************************** Gwen Curtis University of Kentucky Libraries Science Library Map Collection 410C King Library Addition Lexington, KY 40506-0039 Phone: (859) 257-1853 Email: [log in to unmask] Fax: (859) 323-3225 -----Original Message----- From: Maps, Air Photo, GIS Forum - Map Librarianship [mailto:[log in to unmask]] On Behalf Of Angie Cope Sent: Tuesday, March 01, 2011 4:03 PM To: [log in to unmask] Subject: I-LL loan request: Microfilm of Sanborn maps from Los Angeles? -------- Original Message -------- Subject: I-LL loan request: Microfilm of Sanborn maps from Los Angeles? Date: Tue, 1 Mar 2011 13:55:14 -0700 From: Ken Rockwell <[log in to unmask]> To: Maps, Air Photo, GIS Forum - Map Librarianship <[log in to unmask]> I have a request from a colleague here at the University of Utah's Marriott Library: "I'm working with a group of architecture students who are doing a site analysis of the historic Arts District in Los Angeles. We'd like to acquire Sanborn maps, but I'm not certain what is possible. Is it likely that a regional (academic or public) library would ILL microfilm? I know UC Berkeley has good collection of California Sanborns (original as well as microfilm, including copies of LOC holdings), and so, too, does the LA Public Library system. There are catalog records in WorldCat, so one presumes an ILL request could be submitted. I just didn't know if / how it would be filled. Can you advise?" Anyone know if such microfilm is available by I-LL? We only have Utah region covered; no idea who loans their microfilms out or not. ---Ken Rockwell
