If someone is looking for airphotos, please get the keys to the file cabinets from the top drawer of the desk in the Maps office. The keys are marked with cabinet numbers (key #3 works for cabinets 1 & 3). Please log airphoto use on the form on the Maps desk, or email me (lsugden@uvic.ca)
Why? The B.C. government's airphoto lab and warehouse/library has closed, and their print photo collection is in offsite storage until at least September. This makes the Map Library's print collection semi-archival until the government's new digital system is fully available. We will continue to circulate the photos, and monitor usage, and the government's progress in making digital photos available. Thanks!
