Siu
Min,
You
may have received the maps under the DMA depository
program. According to my correspondence files, it looks
like the DMA and USGS depository programs were consolidated
with the Congressional depository program in 1982. I can
send you a copy of the letter if you like. Look at the D
5.300’s in the list of classes for series and Sudoc numbers
included in the Congressional depository program.
If
I were you, I wouldn’t weed anything without checking with
your regional library or GPO first.

Hi all:
We are weeding our map collections and I need advice on the
DMA maps that we have.
We have about 36 drawers (standard
flat map drawers) of DMA maps. They are all in
good conditions. I am not sure if these maps are federal
depository map or not. I could not find anything from CGP.
The
maps do not have depository stamp on it and do not
have SuDoc call number on it.
These maps are arranged by series.
Examples
printed on the map:
Series 1301
Sheet SC 36
& PT 35
Edition 3-GSGS
Series L500
Sheet NH 44-7
Edition 1-AMS
Series Q501
Sheet NQ 3, 4-7
Edition 1-AMS
Can anyone tell me these are Federal Depository
items? If so, what is the SuDoc. #
I would like to know the historical value of these
maps.
Are they worth keeping?
Are they online?
I would rather find them a good home than to withdraw
them.
Do you know of any library would like to have them?
Thank you
so much for your help.
Sincerely,
Siu Min
