Where are the maps?
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 this page 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 the Library's 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.
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.
