Those of you interested in fire insurance maps would be pleased to know that over
one million Sanborn Fire Insurance Map images will be online as part of a
National Digital Library project. The project is sponsored by my company, e data
resources, inc. The maps will be included on the American Memory website.
http://memory.loc.gov   I can't give a definite date as to when the first maps
will be available. Maybe the spring? Feel free to contact me with questions. The
press release is at:  http://www.loc.gov/today/pr/1997/97-204 (It's #97-204 released
in 1997 in case
the link doesn't work.)
