Hi Michael, from Seattle!
There used to be a woman in your neck of the woods that did contract map
cataloging work but I'm pretty sure she is no longer in business. Not
even sure if I have that contact information any more, but could do some
digging when I get back to work next week.
Anyway, the only place I'm familiar with is OCLC's TechPro service, I
coordinated a project for getting city maps of PA and surrounding states
several years ago with pretty good success in terms of the quality of
records. The shipping system we set up to get our maps back and forth to
Dublin, Ohio worked well. There may be other services out there so I'll
be interested in other responses to this question.
Are you trying to get a specific type of map cataloged? Region of the world?
Paige

We need to outsource some of our map cataloging (original and copy).
Anyone have recommendations?
Thank you.
