----------------------------Original message---------------------------- Multnomah County Library (Portland's public library) needs to create a map collection policy statement and we would be interested in seeing what any other large public or university libraries have done. Our collection has gradually evolved under many different caretakers, and it has become unmanageable with the number of staff currently assigned (a librarian, a clerk, and a page, all part-time). We are trying to re-evaluate staffing, funding, storage, and technical support. Any information would be greatly appreciated.
