dc.description.abstractThis lecture lists and describes the way to effectively use the five most heavily sought-after resources in the Lloyd Reeds Map Collection: topographic maps, aerial photographs, fire insurance plans, city directories, and local historical maps. Originally designed for a 4th year Environmental Science course in environmental assessments, it can prove to be of equal value to biologists, engineers, archaeologists, historians, genealogists, geographers, medical researchers, and those working in banks, law firms, and insurance companies.en
