We are sorry to report that the list sent out on Wednesday included some items the Penn Libraries intends to keep. For now please consider the following reduced list, keeping in mind that PA, DE and NJ maps will be retained. Please forgive us for our error.

I should also mention that we have received many requests. We will respond
as soon as we are able.
Thank you,
Joe Holub
