     At the Illinois State Library, we have all the Illinois FIRM's and
     FHBM's, past and present. I have cataloged them all individually on
     OCLC. They are all stored flat in horizontal map cabinets.

Dear all map librarians with FEMA FIRMS,
 
I am interested in hearing how map libraries that have FEMA (Federal
Emergency Management Agency) FIRMs (Flood Insurance Rate Maps) store
and organize them.  Do you catalog them as single maps?  Any comments
would be welcomed.
 
Thanks,
Scott
