About two months ago there were messages on MAPS-L about it's demise
in paper. It is only available now at
http://pubs.usgs.gov/publications/index.html
One message also said that USGS hoped to publish the 1995 annual in
paper.

Fellow map librarians,
Ummm, am I the last one to know...since I am not a documents
librarian...???
Is the hard copy no longer available for the New Publiccations of the
US Geological Survey? Last one we saw was July 1995.
Help! We use this as a selection tool, and need to have access to it.
What is my alternative.
Your friendly non-documents map librarian [who just happens to have
documents in her collection...]

Concerning the USGS New Publications List.
USGS has not printed the paper copy of the Pubs list since last July.
Electronic versions of each month are on their home page (www.usgs.gov).
Word is that budget cuts held up the printing, and _possibly_ they will be
printed in the future. In a newsletter dated July 1996 to their Business
Partners (formerly known as map dealers) they wrote:
"Due to budgetary constraints, the monthly publication of "New Publications
of the US Geological Survey" had been suspended with the last issue in
August 1995. Funding has been approved and it will be printed in the future
but we have no time frame as to when that may be....This publication is also
available through the Internet. URL address:
http://pubs.usgs.gov/publications/index.html"
I do not know of anyone who received a paper copy of Aug. 1995. My copies,
and several others in Tucson, end with July 1995. Did anyone receive August?
Hope this helps.

Hi Alice-
As far as I know "New Publications of the U.S. Geological Survey" in
now located of the USGS's Home page at http://www.usgs.gov
Hope this is true, I haven't had time to check it out as we are
shifting our aerial photo collections this summer, and they have just
wired my computer so I can "reach out". Sue Trevitt-Clark

I e-mailed someone at the USGS about 2-3 months ago and got the
reply that New Publications is not being published in hard copy
because of funding restraints. It is only available on the WWW.
