Maps of World War II

About

Reference librarians gave a brief overview of maps and other cartographic items from World War II that can be found in the Geography and Map collections at the Library of Congress. The session highlighted items made by American forces, as well as captured maps made by the Axis powers. The breadth and content of these items and how they came to the Geography and Map Division was discussed. Participants learned how to search for and access them online or in person. The focus of the session was on maps and online resources available to all patrons any time or place in the world, but attendees also learned how to prepare for a future trip to the reading room. After the presentation, staff answered additional questions from attendees.
