Thanks for pointing to that article Joel. I'm aware that many of the
larger research collections have at least a few of these, PSU has a
pretty sizable amount. I recall some aspects of these maps has been
brought up on this list before, and I'm trying to remember if I have
ever had a conversation with someone who was thinking about doing an
article on these maps but not remembering anything specific. Still, I
have a funny feeling there is more written about them "out there" and
I will pull my indexes to the SLA G&M Bulletin to see if I can find
anything there.
