Abstract	The four papers in this collection report on geography and map libraries: (1) "Changing Patterns of Map Availability" (C. R. Perkins and R. B. Parry, United Kingdom), which presents the results of a three year survey into the state of world mapping, a discussion of the implications of changing patterns of map availability for map library acquisitions, an evaluation of worldwide availability of conventionally published mapping, and a statement of conclusions regarding this availability; (2) "L'automatisation au Departement des Cartes et Plans de la Bibliotheque nationale (Automation in the Department of Charts and Maps in the National Library)" (Pierre-Yves Duchemin, France), which appears only in the original French; (3) "Online Bibliographic and Circulation Systems: The Illinois Example" (David Cobb, United States), which discusses the recataloging project of the University of Illinois Map and Geography Library, supported by a Title II-C grant; and (4) "CARTO-NET: Graphic Retrieval and Management in an Automated Map Library" (Barbara Morris, United Kingdom), which provides descriptions of CARTO-NET, a fully functioning, automated map cataloging and retrieval system, and a study of the feasibility of setting up a cooperative map cataloging network.
