Since the acquisition of the famous Martin Waldseemüller 1507 World Map by the Library of Congress in 2003, there has been new scholarship, not only on the 1507 map, but also on Waldseemüller's other creations and experiments.

A Library of Congress conference on May 17 and 18 will bring together scholars who have worked to answer some of the outstanding historical questions relating to the entire Waldseemüller body of work and that of his fellow cartographer Mathias Ringmann.
