Activity at Free Government Information (http://freegovinfo.info) picked up this week as volunteers posted more stories and we welcomed a new guest blogger.
Our June BOTM, Jessamyn West, opened with a posting EPA – can a database replace a library? which parallels the concerns of some government documents librarians.
Our regular volunteers posted the following stories this past week:
- Pt. 7: Nonlawyer’s journey through Title 44: Free use of Government publications in depositories – Daniel
- Draft plan for EPA libraries available – James R.
- Proposal for Australia to mandate research article deposit – Cindi Wolff (Honorary Volunteer)
- Dorothy Day and FOIA – Daniel
- FDSys Blog Lives! Now how about some content? – Daniel
- Digital Preservation and the Open Web – Daniel
As always we hope that you will stop by and join our conversation.
If you haven’t already, please vote in our poll on archiving gov’t e-docs at http://freegovinfo.info/node/476. We’ve got 102 votes and nine comments, and we’d like to see all 229 depository libraries who gave a positive response to question 65 to weigh in.
No FDSys related activity has been observed at the main FDSys site or at the recently revived FDSys Blog during the past week.
