Geography: Find Maps

Finding Maps in the Library

Some maps and atlases are available online, and others are in print format at Rose Library.  The print map collection is located in drawers on the second floor of Rose.  Print atlases are also on the second floor.

To search the JMU Library Catalog for maps, enter your search term (e.g. "Shenandoah Valley") and then on the results screen use the left hand menu to limit the Material Type to Maps. You may need to click Show More under Material Types to see the option for maps.
