The Library of Alexandria was established under the Ptolemaic Dynasty of Egypt (323-30 BCE) and flourished under the patronage of the early kings to become the most famous library of the ancient world, attracting scholars from around the Mediterranean, and making Alexandria the preeminent intellectual center of its time until its decline after 145 BCE.

“If you want to build a ship, don’t drum up the workers to gather wood, don’t divide the work and give orders. Instead, teach them to yearn for the vast and endless sea.”
— Antoine de Saint-Exupéry (1900-1944) French writer, aviator
Ptolemy was the most famous geographer of Roman times, writing a book that we now generally refer to as the Geography. It is, in many ways, a guide to making maps. Most of the work is a sort of database of some 8,000 locations and their coordinates.
But Ptolemy also includes detailed instructions for mapmaking. In the Geography, Ptolemy discusses which map projections are most accurate and how to orient maps. But we don't have any evidence that Ptolemy himself made maps, and no ancient maps survive that are based on Ptolemy's instructions (this is not surprising -- we don't have many text that survive straight from ancient times). The earliest extant maps based on Ptolemy’s ideas date to the medieval period, like this one from the 1400s.
