Guide to call numbers for maps and atlases

Map cabinetsAll map call numbers begin with the letter G in the catalogue, but the G does not appear on maps and on map drawer labels. An atlas call number that includes "Fo" or "Oversize" is located on the oversize shelves.

Please consult this guide to finding maps or contact us for help.
