I just recently came from the libuarey it was very intresting and figured i would share this with you all. I was looking for a ship i have failed to find any books of general plans online and i really dislike gessing how things are put together. I have no idea if or how much they charge till i call.

Was it a pain to get through security? Did you find what you needed? How much did you pay for copies, etc?
Book of plans for the BB-5 Kearsarge, the one that became the AB-1 crane ship they had it i need to wait a week or two before i call and order, need money first being National Archive it should be declasdified I would think? I will post prices when i find out.
