The Arizona Map Society is being created to serve all those
interested in any aspect of maps, antiquarian or modern, from the
map collector to the professional cartographer or anyone with a
passing interest in maps.  Activities envisioned for the Society
include programs with lectures by experts in the field, field
trips to visit collections, a periodical-type publication, and
possibly special projects to enhance our knowledge of maps.
