Map Library

The Map Library is made up of more than 50,000 maps, including topographic, cadastral, bathymetric, aeronautical, geological and tourist maps. While the library covers the world, the emphasis is on South East Asia, Australia and the Pacific. The map library also includes a range of large format wall maps.

The library is held in room 5231 of the Coombs building and can be viewed during business hours.

With the aim of broadening access to the library, those maps within a topographic series have been catalogued and made searchable through the ANU Library web site. To assist you in your search, links within the library catalogue allow you to view an index map and list of holdings.
