GPO is pleased to announce the launch of its Registry of U.S. Government Publication Digitization Projects at http://www.gpoaccess.gov/legacy/registry/. GPO encourages you or the colleagues at your institution performing digitization to contribute information about your planned, in process, and completed digitization projects including U.S. Government publications to the Registry. You may update information about the projects as they progress. The Registry's goal is to provide comprehensive coverage of all appropriate digitization projects that include U.S. Government publications. The Registry is designed to: * Serve as a locator tool for publicly accessible collections of digitized U.S. Government publications; * Increase awareness of U.S. Government publication digitization projects that are planned, in progress, or completed; * Foster collaboration for digitization projects; and * Provide models for future digitization projects. Projects represented in the Registry must be freely accessible and entirely composed of digitized U.S. Government publications or include a substantial number of them. GPO has seeded the Registry with entries describing our initial plans for FDLP legacy publication digitization, as outlined in Information Dissemination Implementation Plan: Priorities for Digitization of Legacy Collection (http://www.gpoaccess.gov/about/reports/prioritydigitization_plan.pdf). As GPO's digitization activities progress, we will add additional information about our projects to the Registry. If you have questions or comments, please use the GPO online help service at: http://gpo.custhelp.com/cgi-bin/gpo.cfg/php/enduser/ask.php. To ensure that your question is routed to the correct area, please choose the category "Federal Depository Libraries" and the new sub-category "Digitization".
