Survey of Federal Depository Libraries to Determine Essential Print Gov’t Docs.

Survey to Identify Essential Titles for Public Use in Paper or Other Tangible Format March 4 – March 18, 2005:

  • “The dissemination of information products through the Federal Depository Library Program (FDLP) includes a variety of formats. As directed by Congress, the primary method of making publications available to the FDLP is in online format. There are, however, specific titles that are to remain available for selection in paper format, so long as they are published in paper by the originating agency. These titles contain critical information about the activities of the U.S. Government or are important reference publications for libraries and the public. Maintaining the availability of these titles for selection in paper format has been deemed essential to the purposes of the FDLP.”
