----------------------------Original message----------------------------
In the Nov. 1996 (vol.9, no.11) issue of GIS World, there is a short piece
titled "USGS, 3M Enter 'Print on Demand' Agreement.  Prototype hardware and
software are to be developed to allow retail shops to access, download maps,
and print maps on demand.  This is to help the USGS reduce the costs of storing
and printing maps.  I was wondering if that is what a map room in a library
will also be required to do in the future.  The rest of the Depository program
is heading this direction.
