As Joel
mentioned the History of Cartography Project, we map
librarians (“we happy few….”) should all know that the
earlier volumes from History of Cartography project can be
accessed as pdf files from the University of Chicago Press.

our patrons access to these important volumes.

Given that Mark Monmonier is one of the two keynote
speakers, the talk relates to "twentieth century and
beyond," and given that he is editor for vol. 6 of the History
of Cartography series, I thought I'd mention the
"Exploratory Essays: History of Cartography in the Twentieth
Century" site: http://www.geography.wisc.edu/histcart/v6initiative/#essays
. Although obviously over a decade old, these are still
quite good. Douglas Richardson, although also a keynote
speaker for the upcoming May meeting, was not a contributor
to that earlier group of papers.
For those of us who cannot attend in May, we can hope for a
webcast.
