Dear Ms. Bourgault:

The Birmingham Public Library holds the Rucker Agee Map Collection, which
may contain
the volumes you seek.  It is my understanding the collection is reference,
and there-

staff members of the department is [log in to unmask]
Good luck in your search!

Yours truly,
Grace Reid,
Library Administrator
