Angie,
Its on the LC website
http://www.loc.gov/catdir/cpso/genreformgeneral.html, look at the last
item listed under "Cartographic Materials". This might not be what
you're thinking of though, for instance what about all of the "Maps,
[type]" headings, which are listed in the LC Subject Cataloging Manual's
free-floating subdivisions lists. I'm not sure anyone has put together a
comprehensive list, though I'm willing to ask Janis if there is such an
animal at the PSD.
