Narrative:

Landing at ewr on runway 22L, exited the runway right on taxiway V. Taxied up to runway 22R, was told by tower to clear runway, turn left on taxiway P and hold short of pb. The 10-9 chart that we have does not show that you can turn left on taxiway P and get to pb. Taxiway P has been extended but is not on our current chart. You must cross runway 22R to get to pb. We proceeded to cross runway 22R. We heard tower cancel the takeoff clearance for an aircraft on runway 22R. We then realized that we had missed the clearance to hold short of runway 22R, thinking that the controller meant cross the runway when he said clear the runway. We read back the hold short of taxiway pb but not the hold short of runway 22R. The controller never asked us to verify the runway hold short clearance. The only way to get to pb and hold short there is to be on the opposite side of runway 22R. The cause of this event was not having the same taxi diagram that matched the layout of the airport causing a confusion in where we thought we were cleared to and the controller's instructions.

Original NASA ASRS Text

Title: A300 FLT CREW CROSSED RWY AT EWR WITHOUT ATC CLRNC.

Narrative: LNDG AT EWR ON RWY 22L, EXITED THE RWY RIGHT ON TXWY V. TAXIED UP TO RWY 22R, WAS TOLD BY TWR TO CLR RWY, TURN L ON TXWY P AND HOLD SHORT OF PB. THE 10-9 CHART THAT WE HAVE DOES NOT SHOW THAT YOU CAN TURN L ON TXWY P AND GET TO PB. TXWY P HAS BEEN EXTENDED BUT IS NOT ON OUR CURRENT CHART. YOU MUST CROSS RWY 22R TO GET TO PB. WE PROCEEDED TO CROSS RWY 22R. WE HEARD TWR CANCEL THE TKOF CLRNC FOR AN ACFT ON RWY 22R. WE THEN REALIZED THAT WE HAD MISSED THE CLRNC TO HOLD SHORT OF RWY 22R, THINKING THAT THE CTLR MEANT CROSS THE RWY WHEN HE SAID CLR THE RWY. WE READ BACK THE HOLD SHORT OF TXWY PB BUT NOT THE HOLD SHORT OF RWY 22R. THE CTLR NEVER ASKED US TO VERIFY THE RWY HOLD SHORT CLRNC. THE ONLY WAY TO GET TO PB AND HOLD SHORT THERE IS TO BE ON THE OPPOSITE SIDE OF RWY 22R. THE CAUSE OF THIS EVENT WAS NOT HAVING THE SAME TAXI DIAGRAM THAT MATCHED THE LAYOUT OF THE ARPT CAUSING A CONFUSION IN WHERE WE THOUGHT WE WERE CLRED TO AND THE CTLR'S INSTRUCTIONS.
