Dear Sir/Madam

I work at the University of the West Indies as Map Curator. I have a
question re filing maps. I have some European maps printed in the WWII
era. My question is - Do I file the map under the current country
location or the location at the time of printing? I have a map which at
the time of printing represented a location in Nazi occupied Germany. It
is currently now part of Slovenia. Do I file the map under Germany or
Slovenia?

Any advice or referral to resolve this issue would be appreciated.

Best wishes

Thera
