ALA MAGIRT Map Scanning Registry 
Date:  7/24/2020
Description: The ALA MAGIRT Map Scanning Registry was an active database of map scanning projects from 2006-2020. A decision was made by the ALA MAGIRT Executive Board to take down the website due to outliving its usefulness and decrease in usage. The various files found here are the resulting database with supporting material. For more detail, refer to the 2020_Map_Scanning_Registry_recommendation.pdf.
