Re: Thumbnail Pages
Dean, we have our maps in a database on the interest, about 50 have
thumbnail illustrations. Do a search, if an image is present, the
thumbnails will come up. If you just wish to see the maps with images,
click image and it will bring up a list of maps with the thumbnail images.
The address to the historic maps collection database is

Subject: Thumbnail Pages
Our library is considering a small project of creating a
visual catalog of a portion of our map collection. These
are, fortunately, a group of 8 x 10 maps. We would
place thumbnail illustrations on the web along with a
small database (map date, identifiers, and perhaps
place) so these could be sorted. This is a combined
project of the Library, History, and Archaeology.
I would like to know of any web addresses for ARCHIVES
sites that have done this so we can do some browsing
of examples. My director is also very interested in what
kinds of equipment and software is required to do this.
At this point, I'd appreciate sites that we could see and
then investigate further. Thanks.
