We always love a visit from @tsmullaney and his students! The major takeaway? The inherent interdisciplinary, and storytelling, nature of maps. So, no matter what you’re studying, we 10/10 recommend that you give the @StanfordLibs map collections a gander!

Amazing Bing Honors College session @BrannerLibrary today focused on Archives-Based Learning. Thank you to my brilliant colleagues!

Got some ideas about virtual field trips and want to tell people? There's still time to submit to #AGU21 (Deadline 8/4). I'm co-convening a session on virtual field trips and would love to see what you've got! agu.confex.com/agu/fm21/preli… @StanfordEarth #virtualfield @StanfordEd

Stanford has so many maps in its collection but not enough online reviews to help you figure out which ones are worthy of your time. Our librarians Andria & Andrea are here to help. Join them as they very seriously review Seutter's map of Love from 1735 arcg.is/1S84iC

What was it like to be a freshman this year, experiencing college from afar? Stanford freshman Lydia Wei felt a bit like old mapmakers, who had to imagine far-off lands that they never visited. In this spirit, she created her own fantastical map of the Stanford campus as a diary.

One cannot have too much fun with maps! Sure, this video was made for high school students but if you’re new to thinking about and using maps more broadly, it’s worth a view 🗺

This is mapsolutely #MustSeeNHD. 🗺️ Such a fun video, and super helpful! Many thanks to Andrea Renner and Andria Olson, and everybody at @rumseymapcenter and @BrannerLibrary for supporting, encouraging, and being there for #NHD2021 and #NHD2022 students.
