#SLIGExperience
The theme for our Land class today was online maps. We
learned about many different websites that house lots of images of maps. Some
great sites are:
- Library of Congress
- National Archives
- National Oceanic and Atmospheric Administration
- Bureau of Land Management
- USGS
- David Rumsey’s Historical Map Collection
to name a few good sites. State archives, libraries, and
historical societies are also other great sites for historical maps.

Here’s a map I found that was interesting—wish I noted which
site I found it!
