Abstract
This paper shares key insights on the National Library of Scotland's work in creating and maintaining georeferenced map layers, and the new user communities that have been reached through doing so. It describes the georeferencing workflows used to create the layers, and the open-source viewers which allow the georeferenced layers to be viewed. Through web-services, these layers have been very widely used by new user communities. The paper describe these new user communities, and the implications for future online map digitisation, georeferencing and delivery .
