Mary Pedley & Matthew Edney are joined by Karl Longstreth (Clark Library, University of Michigan) on the many challenges of digitizing maps and the advantages to research that such images bring.

Karl Longstreth is the Map Librarian in the Harlan Hatcher Graduate Library where he selects materials and provides bibliographic assistance for the Clark Library map collection, and more generally for environmental studies, geography and urban history in the Graduate Library.

Mary Sponberg Pedley is the Adjunct Assistant Curator of Maps at the Clements Library and co-editor with Matthew Edney of The History of Cartography Volume Four: Cartography in the European Enlightenment. Her research has focused on French and English map makers and map production in the long eighteenth century.

Matthew H. Edney holds the Osher Chair in the History of Cartography at the University of Southern Maine and is the Director of the History of Cartography Project, University of Wisconsin-Madison.
