For All Fellow Map Enthusiasts:

We will be organizing an informal and informative
session at the Toronto Metro Reference Library, 789 Yonge Street,
Beeton West room, Tuesday June 21st, 6-7.30 p.m. to establish
the "Upper Canada Map Society".


The  "Upper Canada Map Society" aims to provide a
friendly and accessible
environment to promote the study and collection of
antiquarian maps, atlases
& cartographic items. The Society will schedule
lectures by experts in the
field and organize outings to view public and
private collections and
exhibitions. We also hope to provide a newsletter
(either twice or three
times a year) announcing upcoming meetings,
lectures, feature articles, book
reviews, exhibitions etc.

Membership is open to librarians, curators,
mapsellers, and anyone
interested in the history of cartography.



Please RSVP to Megan Webster
