----------------------------Original message---------------------------- Seasoned Greetings, Please forgive any cross-posting. I am in the midst of evaluating our map collection. We have mostly 7.5" topos with coverage varying greatly from state to state. The majority of the topos are circa 1940 or earlier. I should mention that we have 1 map filing cabinet with about 10 drawers. I don't see the university springing for another one ever. I was wondering if anyone has developed some guidelines for map collections which serve small liberal arts colleges/universities? Any guidance in this area would be greatly appreciated.
