Hello All,
  Back from vacation 6 hours and I am already back on Maps-L.
 
    I am in the process of working on our equipment request for the
coming year.  I am aware that one of the recent USGS CD-ROMS (no. 8)
requires SVGA, which our library doesn't have at present.  My big
question is, when the 14,000 CD's start coming, what format will THEY
require?  It is easier to justify SVGA (or some other fancy format)
for more than one CD-ROM.  If there was additional information on
this subject at ALA or SLA, I would like to know.  Maybe the people
at USGS know???
    Please reply to the net, as I am sure that others will need this
type of information too.
