I just happened to come across our National Atlas of Sri
Lanka (1988) yesterday, and it has in it a map of "Tea and
rubber" at scale 1:1,000,000 (map 6.3). It's a larger size
than we would photocopy, and it's in color (we don't have
color photocopy), but the student could order a color slide
or photo or transparency from New York Public Library's Copy
Services Division. Please contact me directly if you'd like
further details.

We have received a request from one of our doctoral students for a map of
Sri Lanka showing tea plantations that could be used in his dissertation.
Does anyone have, or know of, a map we could borrow or arrange to
photocopy, or even purchase? Many thanks.

Dear Celia Pratt
We have here the following publication:-
Arjuna's atlas of Sri Lanka / editors: T. Somasekaram, chief editor
[et al.]. - 1st printing. - Scales chiefly 1:1 650 000. - Dehiwala:
Arjuna Consulting Co., 1997. - viii,220p.: ill.,col.ill.,col.maps;
30cm. - Information up to December 1995 "or the latest available". -
ISBN 955-9276-04-02 [sic]
Pages 88 (text) & 89 (col.map) are titled 'Tea, rubber and coconut' &
'Tea rubber coconut' respectively; figures for tea areas are for
1993, the source is cited as Dept of Census and Statistics. Apart
from the 3 products' color-coded distribution display there are added,
for each District, the "Units of 100 hectares under Tea" [etc.].
We could xerox these 2 pages on 2xA4 or on 1xA3 (the latter presumably
in color, which will cost Pounds Sterling ?3.00).
Yours sincerely
