Abstract:
The collection contains records relating to the Office for Map History, a unit of the Golda Meir Library. There are a few records relating to the administration of the office, but the majority of the records relate to the mounting of the major exhibition Maps and the Columbian Encounter. The exhibition ran from 1989 to 1992 and displayed a number of original 13th-17th century maps in order to demonstrate the use of maps as instruments of discovery, power, and cultural dominance.
