I agree with Julie about ILH.  They are a comprehensive vendor for
scientific mapping.  Try making direct contact with Omni for the Cache
River map.  Also, Russell Guy with Omni monitors this list.  He may get
in touch with you, himself.

     Have you tried ILH in Germany for the European one?

     Good afternoon! After the departure of our map librarian, I have
     taken on the task of purchasing items for our Map Library. I know
     about some of the main vendors (Omni, Kappa, ITMB, etc.), but I am
     having difficulty finding vendors for topical maps that are not
     tourist or road maps. I am currently trying to find maps of two
     watersheds (Cache River in Illinois; Tisza River in S.E. Europe).



     Any help would be much appreciated!



     Best,

     Beth
