| Where are they? The printed
topographic maps are located in a black fifteen-drawer map cabinet
between the Gates Computer Lab and the Adult Spanish Language books.
From the Reference Desk, turn to the right towards the wall of
computers, then follow that wall around to the left. There are three
cabinets in a row; the topographic maps are in the rightmost cabinet.
How do I find one?
Each drawer of the map cabinet of printed topographic maps contains
flat sheets of topographic maps. The maps are organized alphabetically
by the official US Geological Survey name for the map.
To find a map, click on the part of the Arizona map on the
Printed Topographic Maps Index that
contains the area you're looking for, then find the name of the map
sheet that covers the area. If the sheet is colored green, the Library
has the map in the map cabinet; if the sheet is colored gray, then the
Library does not own the map. (For other sources of topographic maps,
see our Map Collections page.) A map with the
names of the topographic maps sheets is also attached to the right side
of the map cabinet, but this map does not show which maps the Library
owns.
When you're done with a map, simply lay it on top of the map cabinet.
Please do not take maps out of the Library. |
Where are they? The printed single
maps are located in a black four-drawer file cabinet between the Gates
Computer Lab and the Adult Spanish Language books. From the Reference
Desk, turn to the right towards the wall of computers, then follow that
wall around to the left. There are three cabinets in a row; the single
maps are in the leftmost cabinet.
How do I find one?
Each drawer of the file cabinet of printed single maps contains many
green file folders; each folder contains one or more maps. The folders
are organized alphabetically by place name or topic.
To find a map, look in the
Printed Single Maps Index
for the place name or topic on this page that best matches what you're
looking for, then go to the drawer that contains that folder.
When you're done with a map, simply drop it into the wire basket on
top of the file cabinet.
Please do not take maps out of the Library.
Can I borrow maps?
Unfortunately, the Library cannot lend maps. There are photocopiers
in the Library that can be used to copy maps, including a color
photocopier downstairs in the Periodicals section. |
