Hi everyone:

Sorry for the confusion -- somehow a dash got inserted at the end of the
web address.  It should be _http://mapregistry.library.arizona.edu_ and
my contact information is [log in to unmask]

Also there is a link from the ALA MAGERT web page at
_http://magert.whoi.edu/_ to the Map Scanning Registry.

Here it is again:

Round Table!*

    * Are you embarking on a map scanning project and want to know if
      anyone else has scanned the same maps?
    * Do you need a resource to review technical parameters used in
      other projects?

      information about it?

      but don't know where to look?

      search screen.  The search results provide you with a brief record
      with a link to the full record.
