Subject: Mapping Washington DC with Iris Miller

Metro NY area map folks are invited to join us on Wednesday, April 20 for
the Map Div., NYPL, donor group meeting. This is the 19th year for the
Mercator Society of NYPL! Next year we celebrate both reopening the
renovated Map Division, and the 20th anniversary of Mercator Society, which
has been a major support for the Map Division.

We will be in the Trustees Room, Humanities and Social Sciences Library,
Room 206,  5th Avenue & 42nd Street, Manhattan. The Trustees Room is always
a treat in itself!, with its gorgeous 17th century geographic motif
tapestries. One each for Africa, America, Europe and Asia.

Our speaker will be Iris Miller, of Washington in Maps 1606-2000 fame, and
we will also have a table exhibit of NYC, Versailles and DC maps.

Reception: 5:30
Program: 6:00-7:00
