back scanning our records back to the 1800’s. Some earlier recorded documents
can be found by document only (not yet indexed). In addition, all subdivision
and condominium plats and certified survey maps, and document images are
available. There are two options for retrieving records online: Tapestry and

Tapestry
Tapestry is an Internet access program designed for the occasional user who has some
understanding of real estate documents. Tapestry offers access to real estate documents
recorded in Dane County and other counties in the Midwest. Fees are assessed to pay for support
and maintenance of the system. However, if Tapestry is confusing for you, please visit the
office of your local register of deeds and get assistance to locate your documents.
Laredo
Laredo is an Internet access program designed for title insurance firms and other real
estate-related firms that operate in Wisconsin and need access daily to the land records in
the Dane County Register of Deeds office. If your real estate-related firm needs only occasional
access, or if your computer expertise is limited, consider using Tapestry instead. Fees are
assessed to pay for support and maintenance of the system. If you represent a Wisconsin firm
