Hi Beth,
You may have already encountered this, but in a recent issue of Baseline
(http://www.ala.org/magirt/sites/ala.org.magirt/files/content/publicationsab/baseline/34_1.pdf)

David Bertuca has a discussion of some resources related to fracking
which I found very helpful. The relevant pages are 38-41.
Best,
Susan

     Good afternoon, friends! A recent issue of National Geographic had a
     very interesting article about hydraulic fracturing or fracking. This
     got me wondering what maps we should have available for patrons doing
     research on this topic. Would geologic maps suffice? Or are there
others
     topical maps that we should make sure we have access to in print or
     online?

     I very much appreciate your help with this. Our long-time map librarian
     retired last summer, so we are trying to fill in with collection
     development as best we can.

     Thank you!

     Beth
