Maps in the Library and on the Internet

Library everywhere!
Many library resources and services are available from any location at any time via MUSE. This guide will help you find the library and Internet resources you need to study maps.
The University Library’s map collection is located in the Main Hall of the Western Bank Library.
Databases will help you to find maps, satellite images, boundary data, navigation charts, and historic maps, as well as journal articles.
The Internet can also be a good source of data for maps, geographic information, and country data. Information found on the Web is not always of a good academic standard. For good ‘quality-assured’ links to information suitable for academic use, choose the appropriate subject gateway for your topic.
Denise Harrison, based at the Western Bank Library, is the Faculty Librarian for this subject area, and can be contacted for assistance in finding information and resources for this subject.
