-------- Original Message -------- Subject: Re: DMA map questions] Date: Tue, 25 Nov 2003 15:55:56 -0500 From: Gwen Curtis <[log in to unmask]> Claire: I have a copy of the 1983 DMA Map and Chart Depository Program membership agreement which covers the specifics about the 1501 series. I can fax a copy to you if you like. I'll be anxious to see other responses and if anyone knows if this agreement has been updated or lifted. -- Gwen Curtis, Univ. of Ky Libraries At 02:12 PM 11/25/2003 -0500, you wrote: > -------- Original Message -------- > Subject: DMA map questions > Date: Tue, 25 Nov 2003 08:57:35 -0500 > From: Alexander, Claire L. <[log in to unmask]> > > > ------------------ > I have several questions about DMA maps. > > I am relatively new to the map room and the directions written up from > prior staff include handwritten or typed notes about DMA maps: One is > that Series 1501 may not be photocopied or checked out, but may be > photographed and/or traced. > > I cannot find the original instructions.
