How does your library handle duplicate/superseded and unwanted maps or
atlases?

Please make notes to elaborate on answers - for example, most of us
handle depository items differently than donations or purchases ...

1) Post to a list to find new home: yes/no
which lists:
maps-l
geonet
gov docs federal weeding list
other (please list)

2) Sell at local book sale:

3) Sell or trade to local map resellers:

3) Place on a "freebie" table for patrons to take:

4) Other (please describe)

I'll post results to maps-l

Thanks.

Angie
