    <pre> At the Library of Virginia, we use MrSID to display our map collection.

    We are very pleased with this product and have used it for several years.

    If you would like to take a look, the URL is:

    http://image.vtls.com/BPW

    This is a guide to our Board of Public Works collection, and if you scroll down, you will find a link to the maps.

    We have also digitized maps from the Petersburg Public Library - these can be found at http://image.vtls.com/VDLP/Petersburg
