Fellow Govdoc'rs:

Have I missed something?  According to the Administrative Notes Tech Sup
for 7/31/2000, CIA Maps and Atlases (PREX 3.10/4:, Item 0856-A-01) has
changed to electronic format at
http://www.odci.gov/cia/publications/maps/maingrx.html . This URL led me to
a page with one non-clickable graphic.  Shortening the URL to
http://www.odci.gov/cia/publications/maps/ led me to the CIA catalog for
maps.  No map is available online -- it is a simple list of maps and
prices.  There was a link for ordering information that gave purchase
information for maps and made no mention of depository libraries.

Is this really a cancellation? Has anyone out there found the electronic
forms of these maps? I know this could be a question for askLPS, but I know
it can take awhile to get a response back and I want the documents
community to know that we're at risk of losing a valuable resource.

yours in concern (paranoia?),
