John,
As a cataloger and map librarian, I like option (1) better than the other
two. The reason that I don't prefer option (3) is that those holdings
fields usually have serious space (and other) limitations. As a library
PATRON, I like option (2) because it's user-friendly and there when I am
looking for the map segment that I want. With my cataloger/ML hat on
again for a moment, I don't like option (2) all by itself because if that
index gets lost, you're back to square one. So, I guess that I would try
to do both (1) and (2), citing the index map in the bib record plus
adding the detailed contents note.
