Suggestions of a couple products to hang maps without impact or defacing
of map.  There are other options of hanging maps from the "Map Mounting
Hardware" section of website www.mymapman.com

TrapEase Rails for easy clip in and strong holding;

As a new maps librarian, I need your advice. I would like to temporarily
hang maps on white boards or bare walls for use during instruction
sessions and I would like to use a method to hang them that has minimal
impact on either the maps or the vertical surface.

The best idea I have heard is to use those black binder clips to clip the
map to the lip (assuming there is one) at the top of the white board.

Does anyone have any other suggestions?

 Many thanks,
Barbara
