Using the MrSid Browser Plug-in

To view an image at greater detail with the "pan & zoom" link, the free MrSID viewer software, available from LizardTech, Inc., must first be installed on your computer. Review the download choices on the MrSid download site to determine the appropriate plug-in for your computer's operating system.

Images can also be enlarged (in JPG format) without the MrSID viewer plug-in by clicking "View Enlarged Image" from the image detail page.

The optional Mr SID plug-in software is provided by LizardTech, and the New York Public Library makes no further warranty regarding its use.
