Were any of them received through the Federal Depository Library Program? Obviously you will need to follow withdrawal procedures.

Also, most of the USGS geological series are scanned and online.  When we downsized we got rid of all the geological series that weren't of our state and were online.  We also got rid of paper USGS topographic maps outside of our region. I'm a great fan of the National Map and TopoView.

We still have a few faculty who are attached to print maps even though they are rarely used. We have to be politic about downsizing.

Do not overlook appropriate state Property Surplus laws and regulations.

Northern Arizona University sits at the base of the San Francisco Peaks, on homelands sacred to Native Americans throughout the region. We honor their past, present, and future generations, who have lived here for millennia and will forever call this place home.

Subject: Cost of downsizing map collection

Hi,

I am working on a plan for downsizing the historical part of the UCLA's Henry J. Bruman Map Collection<https://urldefense.com/v3/__https:/guides.library.ucla.edu/maps__;!!C5qS4YX3!UK8nacah7i1pNywFki5YrMOj89rZnVvETGHuoJr78SRb54u43xdlHJ_HwMQAgbRpLA$>.
As my AUL stated "we are moving the historical map collection from the Library Special Collection to the Geology Library just to respectfully discard the whole collection in the near future."

Would you have recommendations/ideas on how to estimate the cost of  review, reassessment, deposition of the reminder of maps, discards and withdrawals. I would be also very interested in hearing about criteria for retention. I would very much appreciate your input (please respond directly to my email).

All the best,
Maria
