The Library's enormous map collection doesn't only include antique and vintage maps. We also collect modern maps. One such item is this 2021 pictorial map by Veazey Studio, which celebrates the city of Atlanta's contributions to hip-hop. A perfect highlight as 2023 marks the 50th anniversary of hip-hop!
