This review of the Jorge A. Vivó Escoto Map Library (MJAV by its acronym in Spanish) of the Benemérita Universidad Autónoma de Puebla (BUAP, Meritorious Autonomous University of Puebla, Mexico) presents a brief description of the activities and outlines some of the collections that conform its documentary archive. Among these we find maps, plans, aerial photographs, as well as documents that date back more than 100 years, primarly documenting the changes of the territory of Puebla and Mexican territory. It also presents the challenges, tasks, and initiatives, with the latter aimed at enhancing the management of the map library for the benefit of future generations.
