Shhh! - if we don’t mention maps, they might go away.

Librarians as a whole tend be suspicious and afraid of maps, relegating them to murky corners of their libraries if, indeed, they hold maps at all. This paper will attempt to show that maps while having an aesthetic quality are also wonderful ways of displaying and disseminating information. Maps, like everything else, have entered the computer age and new developments such as GIS and online digital map collections will be described.
