The atlas case in Gelman Library is located behind the Reference & Information Desk on the 1st floor. In it are most of the oversized atlases. There are many other atlases in the Reference Collection and in the Stacks that are not in the atlas case. Use the catalog to find them.

To find an atlas on a particular topic in the catalog, use the "Advanced Search" tab. Use the term "atlas" (or "maps") and the term for the kind of atlas (or map) you seek.

Examples are:
     atlas china
     atlas "military history"
     atlas languages
