Many are oversize and have been folded or rolled for storage over the years. Often maps were created using media that has not proven stable with time. In each case, the practicality of the map has worked against the likelihood of its long-term preservation and has presented conservation challenges. Maps that remain intact today are consequently even more valuable, not only for their aesthetic beauty but also for the rare insight they offer into the landscapes and world views of the past. <o:p></o:p></p><p class=MsoPlainText><o:p> </o:p></p><p class=MsoPlainText>This program will provide an overview of the history of maps and address predominant issues in their care and preservation.
