[Evergreen-web-team] Evergreen Libraries map icon

[Anoop Atre]

Of course we could show the different types of libraries (public, 
academic, k12, etc) with different icons and there could be museums 
special collections who might come into the fold someday so that would 
make for an interesting map. That's another discussion though and maybe 
something we should consider when we do a look/feel redesign.

Since we already know from context that all the locations are libraries, I don't think that it is strictly necessary to have any special icons communicating that the locations on the map are of libraries.  So, the location is the primary theme of the map, not the type of establishment.
