    Summary:

    The collection consists of 167 maps of Senegal, mostly in French, primarily showing the whole country, region, and city levels, covering a variety of subjects and uses. These maps make up a small part of the Geography and Map Division's holdings of maps that were acquired before the advent of digital cataloging in the 1970s. The maps in this collection span the years of 1690-1973, with the bulk of the collection spanning 1920-1970. The collection's strengths are in maps of administrative boundaries, city plans of Dakar, locations of natural resources, transportation lines, and other related subjects. The maps in this collection came to the Library through a variety of means, including government transfer, purchase, donation, and government agency deposits.
