Map Cataloging: Learning the Basics by Susan M. Moore and Lucinda M. Hall is a very nice introduction. Has a good list of resources, information about projection, scale, subject headings and differences from book cataloging. Anyone who only deals with maps on an occasional basis should print this out and keep it handy.
