MAPS FOR DISPOSAL
URS, a company with engineering, architectural, and environmental interests, has a map collection that they wish to dispose of. There are 8 vertical plan presses, with a wide geographical spread of paper maps, mostly post 1945, with a good collection of African mapping. The company is anxious to dispose of the maps to a library rather than they be destroyed. They are located in Ashford, Kent, and the site is due to be sold shortly.

The British Library has looked the collection and already holds much of it, so will not be able to take the collection.
