Hi all:

The latest Western Association of Map Libraries (WAML) Information Bulletin is here!   http://www.waml.org/ib/waml-information-bulletin/46-3/

This edition includes articles on:

· GeoBlacklight – a great new web-based discovery platform for geospatial data

· What happened when the LA Public Library doubled its (already large) map collection in 6 hours!

· Jim Coombs’ newly revised 43-map index to the Library of Congress G Schedule – a great tool for catalogers

And our features:

· Four reviews of map-related books

· A list of newly published maps of western North America

· Cataloging news (including an interesting “Serio-comic war map”)
