MEMORANDUM FOR: Director of Logistics
SUBJECT: Map Library Space Requirements
1. At our last Agency Space Advisory Conunittee meeting, Max
Hugel asked me to determine the minimum on-site holdings required
by the OCSR Map Library. Our findings are presented herein for your
i.nfor:nation.
2. OGSR estimates the break-even point--the mi.nir-,:um Headquarters
compound space required to justify a major move and split operation--
to be 10,000 square feet. The P&PD renovation would afford the space
necessary to meet this requirement. The manner in which this square
footage would be used will be determined in part by ceiling height in
the renovated area. Ceiling height permitting, map cases would be
stacked six high with space used as follows:
Third persons (desk and
map-layout area) .................... 4,200 sq. ft.
The foreign map loan collection;
671 map cases ....................... 3,800 sq. ft.
Foreign produced maps, atlases,
and guidebooks retained as
stock items ........................... 500 sq. ft.
Selected portions of the CIA/
Defense Napping Agency (DMA)
distribution collection ............. 1,500 sq. ft.
Total 10,000 sq. ft.
Should ceiling height restrict map cases to four high, the foreign
nap loan collection alone would require 5,700 square feet. In that
(.vent, remote storage requirements for the stock items and the CIA/
I1A distribution collection would increase from 6,000 to 8,000
square feet. OGSR is prepared, however, to accept. as little as
