I am creating a map series. I would like to label around my map with an attribute from the series page north, south, east, and west (labeling each side of the map). Is there an easy way to do this with dynamic text?

Hi @Ivy_Hinson 

One way to use dynamic text in a map series is to create neighbor labels. These are labels on a page that show the page name of pages to the left, right, above, or below the current page. Neighbor labels are often used when creating a grid index map series or strip map series. To add these labels, you need fields in your map series index feature containing the information on neighboring pages. Use the Calculate Adjacent Fields geoprocessing tool to create and populate fields to label neighboring pages.

For more information, please see the following web-help topic
