Though everyone is busy, it's important to take time to nominate those
libraries whose staffs' hard work deserve recognition. While we know the
depository staffs in all regions work hard to support the program, here are
those libraries that have gone above and beyond. Please take the time to
acknowledge those efforts and successes by nominating them for the Federal
Depository Library of the Year.

What Is The Award?
The Federal Depository Library of the Year Award provides special
recognition for a library that furthers the goal of the Federal Depository
Library Program by ensuring that the American public has free access to its
Government's information through:
Outstanding service to meet the Federal government information needs in the
library's service area
Creativity and innovation in developing specific community programs for use
of Federal government information or a dramatic increase in their
community's usage of Federal government information
Leadership in creating public service programs that can be emulated by other
Federal Depository Libraries
The winner will be announced at an award ceremony during the fall 2006
Depository Library Conference and meeting of the Depository Library Council.
The conference will be held in Washington, DC from October 22-25, 2006. GPO
