GPO Appoints NCSA Steering Committee Members
The U.S. Government Publishing Office (GPO) is pleased to announce the appointment of 32 Government information professionals to roles on National Collection Service Area (NCSA) Steering Committees. Many more volunteered to serve and will be considered as there are vacancies on the committees to ensure broad participation.
NCSA Steering Committees facilitate discussion and collaboration among the Federal depository libraries in the NCSA. The committees will develop planning documents for the collaborative management of depository collections and work with GPO to develop and refine guidance and procedures for the digital-first FDLP. More information is available in the committee charters.
Steering Committees have seven members, including a representative from the Depository Library Council (DLC). Additionally, there is an alternate and Federal Depository Support Services librarians who will be at meetings. The first appointments to Steering Committees are shown below.
