It appears that Google removed some of the functionality for searching user created maps.

Google gives the ability for you to store the location of favorite addresses such as your home, work, school, etc.
To save a location, first log into your Google account and then search Google Maps for the location you want to save. Next, click on the push-pin associated with the location to display the context bubble for that spot.
At the bottom of the context bubble is an option to Save to map. Click it, enter a name for the location and hit save.
After saving the location, you will notice on the left (right underneath the Google Maps logo) a link that says "My Places". Click on the My Places link to display the list of saved locations, which should include the location you just added.
See the image below for reference.

I see what you mean. The address in the information card seems to be non-selectable with the mouse and dragging over the text.
However, if you triple-click the address, the text is highlighted and can be copied with a Ctrl+C (or right-click and choosing "Copy").
Since I originally posted this, it seems that Google have fixed a bug on their end. I can now select the address by dragging with the mouse.
