Dear MapHisters,
To provide a learned international society for the subject it has been
suggested
that there should be an International Society for the History of the Map.
In order to establish whether there is a wish for such a Society at
international level
and to decide what form it might take we would like to ask you for your
views.
Please complete the online survey form at:

This ISHM survey is being undertaken by the members of the Founding Group
(FG)
as constituted in 2009 under the auspices of the Directors of Imago Mundi
Ltd.. Your views will be considered at the Imago Mundi Directors' meeting
on
30 November, 2010 in London with a view to deciding on a way forward.
Thank you very much for your assistance.
Zsolt G. Török
Chair, ISHM Founding Group
