Donna Sherman (Map Curator)
My name is Donna Sherman and I am a Special Collections Librarian responsible for curating the map collections at the University of Manchester Library. I have worked with the collection for twelve years and I have an undergraduate degree in Visual Arts and Culture (Salford University) and Masters in Librarianship (Manchester Metropolitan University).
I am a member of the Map Curators Group of The British Cartographic Society and represent university map collections on the British and Irish Committee for Map Information and Cataloguing Systems (BRICMICS). I am also a member of the University of Manchester’s MCGIS research group (mapping: culture and geographical information science).
