摘要

摘要第二次世界大战后,美国国会图书馆地理与地图处通过美国陆军地图服务局和类似的军事机构,以及从传统的国内外来源获得了大量与军事有关的地图。该司发现自己拥有许多复制品或其他消耗性制图材料。该司通过其特别地图处理项目管理盈余。它从学生、教师和图书馆员中招募人员,以确保通过各种各样的一线项目获得实际的人员援助。该项目充当了重新分配其剩余收藏的地图和其他制图材料的渠道。由于该部门享受到了这种安排的好处,例如获得了对其收藏的控制权,许多大学、学院和其他图书馆都从获得重复材料中受益,这些材料加强、扩大了地图收藏,有时还“播种”了地图收藏。作者探讨了该专项的根源和创建;其结构、人员配置、影响和结果;以及重要的变化。

“Will Work for Maps”: A History of the Library of Congress Geography and Map Division Special Map Processing Project
Abstract After World War II, the Geography and Map Division at the Library of Congress acquired large quantities of military-related maps through the U.S. Army Map Service and similar military agencies, as well as from traditional domestic and foreign sources. The Division found itself in possession of many duplicates or otherwise expendable cartographic materials. The Division managed the surplus with its Special Map Processing Project. It recruited from the ranks of students, faculty, and librarians to secure hands-on staffing assistance with a kaleidoscopic variety of frontline projects. The Project served as a conduit to redistribute maps and other cartographic materials from their surplus collection. As the Division enjoyed the benefits of this arrangement — such as gaining control of their collections — many university, college, and other libraries benefited from acquiring duplicate materials, which strengthened, enlarged, and sometimes “seeded” map collections. The authors explore the Special Project’s roots and founding; its structure, staffing, impacts, and outcomes; and important changes.

期刊介绍: The Journal of Map & Geography Libraries is a multidisciplinary publication that covers international research and information on the production, procurement, processing, and utilization of geographic and cartographic materials and geospatial information. Papers submitted undergo a rigorous peer-review process by professors, researchers, and practicing librarians with a passion for geography, cartographic materials, and the mapping and spatial sciences. The journal accepts original theory-based, case study, and practical papers that substantially advance an understanding of the mapping sciences in all of its forms to support users of map and geospatial collections, archives, and similar institutions.
