We've just launched the THIRD regular subscription issue of the "Grassroots Mapping Forum", our community research journal/archive/zine/map, where we hope to share ideas, techniques, and stories from the Grassroots Mapping community. (For those of you who don't know, we are a community of activist cartographers who use DIY tools for civic science -- we take aerial photos using kites and balloons of things like the BP oil spill.)

The Grassroots Mapping Forum is printed on a two 22.75x35" sheets of acid-free paper folded down to just over letter size, and includes a full color reproduction of a grassroots map along with essays, illustrated guides, and interviews on the reverse.

Your full-price purchase subsidizes free and discounted distributions to Gulf Coast residents and selected libraries, community organizations, and residents of the Plaquemines Parish area; email team@publiclaboratory.org for details on free and discounted copies.

If you're interested in supporting our work, consider buying 3 or 4 and giving them to your friends.
