Kathleen [et al.],

The collection-development policy statement for the University of Chicago Map Collection at

http://guides.lib.uchicago.edu/content.php?pid=115216&sid=1220061

is partly boiler-plate and is not particularly up-to-date (especially on spatial data). Hope you still find it useful.

Best,

Subject: Major map collection - CD Policy?

I’m overhauling my maps collection development policy and am curious to see those of other libraries.  I found a random assortment in a google search, but mostly smaller places that only mention maps in a couple of sentences.

The CD policies I’m most interested in seeing are those of very large map collections – ones that are actively being built above and beyond federal depository shipments.

If you have a policy, please share.

Thank you!
