----------------------------Original message---------------------------- Hello, I am under the impression that most all maps produced by the U.S. Government ca n be legally copied, since they are not copyrighted. However, I am unsure as t o what U.S. Govt. maps are not permitted to be copied. I believe some maps of the Defense Mapping Agency, Army Mapping Service, etc. are not allowed to be co pied. What I would like to know is exactly what maps by what agencies you cann t copy. I seem to remember a librarian getting into serious trouble for copyi ng some maps for a patron. I forget just what kind that he copied. I just had a patron who wanted to copy some old A.M.S. maps of Palestine and I wasn't su re if it was OK or not. Does anyone have the answer to this or know where I ca n find the regulations. TIA for any enlightment on this topic. Joan Zeeb-Roman Map Library, Kent State University
