Abstract

From 1951 to 2003, the Library of Congress Geography and Map Division hosted a summer project, primarily intended to assist the Division in processing maps and cartographic resources either for inclusion into the collection or for dispersal as duplicates to other libraries. This paper draws on research by Paige Andrew, Linda Musser, and Laura McElfresh, constructing a comprehensive history of the LC G&M Special Project.
