This collection provides digital access to a selection of the fire insurance maps published by the Sanborn Map Company held by the Special Collections Department of Raymond H. Fogler Library. Maps found here include those created for Maine communities through the year 1923.
Additional information about the library's Sanborn map collection, including maps for towns not yet digitized and those published after 1923, can be found in the library's online catalog, URSUS.
We wanted to be sure to note that early Sanborn maps of Portland, Maine, have been digitized by our colleagues at the University of Southern Maine and are available through Osher Map Library's online collections. The Library of Congress has made available online maps published prior to 1900, including those for Maine.
