Hello All,

I found the citation to the counting maps article:

"Estimating the Size of a Large Map Collection, or, How I  ‘Lost’
200,000 Maps and Still Kept My Job."

  Cartographic Perspectives 37 (2000): 82- 88.

Kathleen,

Do you remember if this was written by John Anderson at LSU? I might have
this filed somewhere if it is.
