catalog can help with. Hear about how OGS approaches this task.<br>
<b>Mapping Resources for Digitization Professionals.</b> Erin Wilson, digital imaging specialist & lab manager, Mahn Center for Archives and Special Collections, Preservation & Digital Initiatives</span><span style="font-family: Calibri, sans-serif; color: black;">,
Ohio University Libraries</span><span style="font-family: Calibri, sans-serif; color: rgb(32, 33, 36);">. Mapping technologies allow us to visualize information, observe patterns, tell stories, and explore collections in novel ways. This presentation will
provide an overview of free tools ranging from basic to advanced, as well as resources for working with location data and historical maps.<br>
<b>Engaging Columbus.</b> John Krygier, professor of Environment and Sustainability, Ohio Wesleyan University. John is a geographer with specializations in cartography, geographic information systems (GIS), and environmental and human geography, and has developed
