Dear all,
View from an Australian library:
Like Kathy, we in the State Library of Victoria subscribe to GeoKatalog,
and I use it occasionally for selection, as it is the most comprehensive
map catalogue. The GeoKartenbrief supplement is also useful,
particularly the alert notices that come as emails. I also use it very
occasionally for the index maps to series, if we are needing to create a
new index.

Becky,
We subscribe. I do occasionally use it for ordering and I have
occasionally used it for national topographic map indexes. Admittedly,
it is not heavily used, so I can see why you might consider cancelling
it, especially if you are not purchasing many international maps. ILH
is not the first map dealer I go to looking for maps, but sometimes they
are the only source I can locate. (No complaints with ILH. It's easier
for us to order from US dealers, and I don't have to worry about whether
the dollar is weak or strong against the Euro.)
I do look through the GeoKartenbrief which comes as part of the Geo
Katalog 2 subscription for new publications I might not see listed
elsewhere.

I would be interested in the usage level of Geo Katalog 2. It is a
service that our library subscribes to and I receive the supplements.
However I have never had need to use it or have had anyone ask about it
in the six years that I have been here. This may partly be a function
of lack of purchasing power on my part but I would be interested in how
often other subscribers use this source and how many libraries are
subscribed to it.
Thanks,
Becky Lowery
