Last week, a patron asked if we had old Iowa road maps. Specifically, one from 1957. I wasn't sure. So, I did what I usually do, and did a quick search online. Luckily, the State Library of Iowa has PDFs available online of Iowa Transportation Maps going back to 1952. I thought it was cool to go back and look at how much the roads have changed.
