Mr. <[log in to unmask]> To: Maps, Air Photo, GIS Forum - Map Librarianship <[log in to unmask]> Hello, colleagues, This question is for those of you who manage US Federal Depository maps collections. Does anyone know if these two titles have been superseded? Maps of the World’s Nations v.1 Western Hemisphere (1976), v.2 Africa (1977) PrEx 3.10/4:W 89 Polar Regions Atlas (1978) PrEx 3.10/4:P 75/2 They are almost hopelessly out of date as far as currency or timeliness is concerned. I know there is some historical value, but they are not unique sources of that information. The depository rules require that if not superseded by a new edition or title, they cannot be discarded without approval from the regional depository. This is what I would like to do. For the first title, it appears that only these two volumes were produced, or at least distributed.
