We often do that when we go to public meetings or outreach events.  Binder clip the map to foam core and then set the map on a collapsible easel for audience viewing.

As a new maps librarian, I need your advice. I would like to temporarily
hang maps on white boards or bare walls for use during instruction
sessions and I would like to use a method to hang them that has minimal
impact on either the maps or the vertical surface.

The best idea I have heard is to use those black binder clips to clip
the map to the lip (assuming there is one) at the top of the white board.

Does anyone have any other suggestions?

Many thanks,

Barbara
