----------------------------Original message---------------------------- While surfing the USGS pages on the world wide web, I came across a press release, dated August 11,1995, which announces that on August 12, 1995, the price of standard topographic quadrangle map is increasing to $4.00. They are also initiating a handling fee of $3.50 per mail order for all products. The price of most other maps is also being standardized at $4.00 per sheet. I do have a question about discounts. There has been an unadvertised 50% educational discount. Will this continue and what are the other discounts? Maybe John Shanton or someone else at USGS can answer this question.
