See http://www.cartography.org.uk/about/special-interest-groups/mcg/toolbox-index/ This online resource for map curators, librarians and archivists is sponsored by the Map Curators' Group of the British Cartographic Society. It aims to provide a starting point for anyone searching for information on maps and map curatorship - how to acquire, store, conserve, catalogue, date, interpret ... maps. If you know of a key resource that is not included, please let me know. In particular, I'd be pleased to hear about suppliers of plan chests not already included in the Furniture section of our 'Equipment and Supplies' page: http://www.cartography.org.uk/about/special-interest-groups/mcg/toolbox-index/toolbox-6-equipment-and-supplies/ Unfortunately the UK Directory of Map Collections is not yet available though we are working hard to restore service. It is temporarily still available at http://stage20.pindarcreative.co.uk/default.asp?contentID=705 Anne -- Anne Taylor Head of Map Department, Cambridge University Library, West Road, Cambridge CB3 9DR Tel: 01223-333041.
