USGS Frequently Asked Questions

Question: Is the old National Atlas still available?

Answer:

No. The National Atlas of the United States of America® published by the USGS in 1970, is out of print. However, the Library of Congress has added the original National Atlas to its American Memory collection on the World Wide Web. Please follow this link to browse through the earlier atlas.

Also, many maps from the 1970 edition can be purchased separately. Follow this link for information on older National Atlas maps.

To locate a USGS map dealer near you, follow this link. Used or antique book stores are possible sources for the original National Atlas. Reference copies are available in many libraries.
