	Bolles collection on the history of London the collection of Edwin C. Bolles on the history of London from its founding to the 19th century "Edwin C. Bolles, professor of English at Tufts College (now Tufts University) in the late 19th century, assembled a substantial focused collection of materials on Victorian London. These materials include not only conventional print sources but many pieces that are unique or quite rare: folio descriptions of the city from limited print runs, contemporary 19th century maps in various shapes and formats, illustrations and prints from the 17th through the 19th century, that capture a precious (and now largely forgotten) record of how the British represented this city. The digital archive represents a comprehensive and integrated collection of sources and resources on the history and topography of London. Texts, images, and maps in the Bolles collection are all interconnected. Together they form a body of material, heterogeneous in form, but homogeneous in theme, that transcends the limits of print publication and exploits the flexibility of the electronic medium. The digitized maps are linked to each other, to relevant source texts, and to illustrations of the locations as they appeared a the time or at present. Similarly, the texts are linked to the maps and the images, and so on"--"More about this collection" screen
	Boston streets mapping directory data "Boston Streets combines three heavily used resources in historical research libraries; photographs, maps, and city directories. Traditional city directories have been converted from paper resources to full-text searchable digital documents. As of August 2004, historic images of Boston from both The Bostonian Society (about 3000 images) and Tufts University (400 images) were scanned for use with the Boston Streets project. Overview maps and atlases of Boston ranging from 1844 to 1950 make up the bulk of the geographic resources included in the project. Orthographic images of modern day boston, and vector data from the boston redevelopment authority and MassGIS are use to ground the Boston in its modern context. The layering of historic maps and datasets of address points collected from those maps, show visually the changes in Boston's physical landscape as time progresses."

	Tennessee Electronic Atlas The Tennessee Electronic Atlas "seeks to serve several constituencies, including students, educators, and administrators at all levels, political leaders, people involved in economic development and natural resource management, and the simply curious." The site is quite user-friendly, and the main maps contained on the site include thematic maps (at the county and state level) and interactive mapping (which contains tutorial exercises that introduce the basic concepts involved in geographic information systems). For users interested in utilizing the full capabilities of the site, the Metro Web GIS service area of the site allows users to look at the main metropolitan regions in the state, and to customize the themes (such as churches, golf courses, and hospitals) to their preferences. Another helpful feature of the Metro Web service is that as users zoom into any particular locale, the topographic maps change to aerial photograph overlays. For those seeking a wealth of information, spatial and otherwise, about the state of Tennessee, this Web site will be much appreciated.
