Abstract

Abstract This describes an attempt to obtain quantative information about the maps and atlases people possess, and how they make use of them. The sample is derived essentially from Scotland and the North of England, with a bias towards people who are members of certain societies and as such likely to be map users. Over 1500 completed questionnaire forms are carefully analysed in relation to a large number of topics, including the use of maps of different scales, holdings of different types of atlas, etc. The tentative conclusions firmly indicate the value of research of this type.
