I was poking around at The Shifted Librarian a while ago, and ended up on another librarian's blog at a post mentioning that her library offered HeritageQuest online. Well, I figured my library might also do that, and sure enough, Houston Public Library has a whole slew of genealogy research databases available, including HeritageQuest, which has full indexes and PDFs of the US censuses from 1860 through 1920! And it's FREE! You just use your library card number and away you go!
I spent a while yesterday afternoon downloading and printing all the 1920 census pages for DEAMs in Indiana. Pretty cool....
