We all utilize government information in our jobs, whether we’re helping patrons at the reference desk, teaching students in the classroom, or working to support the day-to-day functions of our libraries.

This session will give an overview of the many improvements and changes afoot both officially through potential legislation in Congress and policy changes at the Government Publishing Office, and unofficially through community efforts to preserve and collect government information.
