Scope and Content Note

From the Collection:

The Archives Map collection consists of printed maps of Africa, the Caribbean Islands, the World, and the United States. The collection includes approximately four hundred and thirty-five (435) items published between 1542 and 1987 by well-known cartographers such as Sebastian Munster, Abraham Ortelius, and Willem Blaeu. Some of the maps on the surface appear to be duplicates, but upon examination, they are a variation of the same map, often with a different cartographer and date.

Each map in the item identification has the title, cartographer, publisher, date, and a brief map description. However, the information does not include mathematic map data (scale, projection, coordinates of the area covered, etc.), printer information, or physical description (dimensions in cm giving height and width).

The maps are published in various languages, such as Arabic, English, French and Latin.
