Dear List,
I am currently an MLS student at the University of Maryland.
In a current class we are assessing electronic reference resources and
databases.  The topic of maps surfaced recently and I am wondering what
electronic resources and databases of maps are available and most
popularly used.

Does a commercial database exist that indexes maps and map collections,
such as those that allow one to search for relevant journal articles?

Thank you,
Matthew Matthias
