MADGIC to become Spatial and Numeric Data Services

From their Web site:
MADGIC will be moving to the 4
th floor of the Taylor Family Digital Library later this summer, with a new name: Spatial and Numeric Data Services. As part of this transition, the map and air photo collection will be moved to storage in the Library basement. We regret that there will no longer be a drop-in service for these materials. Spatial and Numeric Data Services will provide a retrieval service for maps and air photos. More details on the move and retrieval service will be available soon.
