Searching for MMBW Plans - A Step-by-Step Guide
Step 1
Go to the Catalogues & Databases section of the Library's website.
Step 2
To search for a plan by:
- municipality or street
- plan number.
Step 3
Type in:
- MMBW
and
- the street (for example, Johnston Street) you wish to find. Add one or two intersecting streets for best results. For further refinement add a municipality. You can also search by municipality using streets to refine your search. However, some municipality names and borders have changed since the plans were produced, so search results may not return the desired plan. If so, omit municipality from your search.
Please note: Your search will find plans containing your chosen streets or municipalities but will not take you direct to these streets or municipalities within the plans. You will need to use the map tools to find particular streets and areas.
or
- the number - if known - of the plan you wish to view (for example, Main grid system, 9D or 1060)
Tip: capital letters and street types - ie 'street' and 'road' - are not required in searches. All search terms can be typed in the same field.
Step 4
If your search returns too many plans you can narrow your search by adding the municipality or more nearby streets (if you know them) to a street search or add nearby municipalities or a street to a municipality search.
Can’t find what you’re looking for?
Try browsing the plans, starting from the Main grid system plan.
