**TMS is continuing the popular "Cartographic
Corner" session this fall as "Members Map
Forum" with new host, David Finfrock.
Members are encouraged to bring maps, atlases,
or other cartographic materials to the meeting
for discussion. You may want to query the group
for information about a map or have some
information to share or a favorite map you want
to show off—anything
you think would be of interest to the group.
Please notify Kit Goodwin, TMS
Secretary-Treasurer, at
goodwin@ut.edu
or 817-861-1425, if you will be bringing a map
for the session. She will need to know the map's
approximate size and if the map is framed. We
will provide display space on tables or easels
along with label cards to identify the owner.
