Topographic Maps

Topographic maps are produced by the USGS and cover the entire United States. Originally intended for planning and executing government projects, they are also used by outdoor enthusiasts, historians, and environmentalists. The Special Collections has topographic maps covering Utah and sections of the surrounding states. These can be searched using the on-line card catalog UNIS. The map specialist also has other tools for finding maps if you are unable to find anything in the catalog. We are in the process of cataloguing a large number of topographic maps that will significantly increase the size of the collection.

Western Americana Maps

This is the general collection of maps relating to the West. It includes everything from road maps to city layouts to maps from university theses. All of these maps are catalogued and filed by their Library of Congress call number in map cases. These maps are also searched using the on-line card catalog UNIS.

Poster Collection

The poster collection contains a wide variety of posters related to university organizations and events. It includes gymnastics meets, plays, guest speakers, etc. The poster collection is not catalogued, but hopefully will be in the near future. It is currently organized by subject and the index to it can be browsed below. If you wish to use the collection, it is best to contact the map specialist and set up an appointment.
