  Maps
 
 
The Sarah Lawrence College Library Map Collection is comprised of government maps (CIA country maps), Census maps from the 1960's to the 1980's (more recent maps can be found online at the Census Bureau Web Site), travel maps by country, National Geographic maps and US Department of the Interior maps of New York, New Jersey, Pennsylvania and Connecticut.

The small CIA maps (8 1/2x 11) can be found stored in binders in alphabetical order by country in the first floor map area. Additionally, maps can be found in many of our atlases.
