I just got a book "The Island of Lost Maps" by Miles Harvey; the CIP catalogs this in 025.8'2, and gives the first subject heading as "Libraries - United States - Special collections - Maps - History - 20th century." The subtitle is "A true story of cartographic crime" and is about several people (mainly one person) who stole maps in the mistaken idea that he could protect them better than the libraries!! My question: why is this in Libraries, rather than History, which is the second subject heading.?? -- Joyce Conklin, San Mateo UHSD librarian (ret) San Mateo CA bkwoman@pacbell.net Macintosh 8600 OS 8.6 =-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-==-= All postings to LM_NET are protected under copyright law.
