Subject: Map Curators' Toolbox
Dear friends and colleagues
I hope that this finds you and yours well.
In these strange times I have found myself working from home and one of my projects is to update the Map Curators' Toolbox
https://www.cartography.org.uk/about/special-interest-groups/mcg/toolbox-index/
This was originally compiled several years ago and is meant to be a first port of call for new colleagues, as well as a central place to find those documents or websites that you use infrequently
but which are important/useful. In the latter category, for example, I count the list of suppliers of map chests (additions welcome!) to which I refer people quite frequently
https://www.cartography.org.uk/about/special-interest-groups/mcg/toolbox-index/toolbox-6-equipment-and-supplies/
The Toolbox, however, cannot be an exhaustive list of every website that might be useful to the map curator/librarian/archivist - the maintenance would be a nightmare!
So, with these provisos in mind, I would welcome suggestions on:
Many thanks and look forward to hearing from you.
Anne
