Subject: Digital Map Library of CartoMundi
Dear Colleages,
CartoMundi – Online promotion of the Cartographic Heritage – is pleased to inform you that it has recently established a Digital Map Library. Currently, the web site proposes about 40.000 references and it gives access to 2.500 digital reproductions. They are antique or new, detailed or general and they represent worldwide places (mostly on Mediterranean and Balkans).
The Digital Map Library is available from the home page of the web site. It works from a list of cartographic series arranged by location and scale. This new entry gives access to the digital reproductions available on CartoMundi, and to a selection of web pages that also display digital reproductions of cartographic series.
CartoMundi is of interest to the general public, to the world of publishing and to several scientific domains. Its interface allows the search of documents by location, for all places worldwide. Also to obtain their description and their call numbers in different map libraries. It allows also a very fluent navigation into several sets of digital reproductions.
This web site operates with a network of partners. Thus, all the map libraries, independently of their size or their status, can contribute to the databases. Three levels of involvement are proposed.
CartoMundi is developed by the Mediterranean House for Social Sciences in Aix-en-Provence under the hospices of Aix-Marseille University.
