Deadline Extended to Apply for First LSCM Pilot Project

The deadline to apply to take part in the first LSCM Pilot Project has been extended to Friday, October 15, 2021.

The first opportunity is scoped as cataloging, item-level inventory, condition assessment, and digitization of between 200-300 monographs from the U.S. Department of War (formed 1789; dissolved 1947), Superintendent of Documents call number stem W, or other war-era temporary agencies. The scope of the documents should be either the U.S. war years of WWI (1914-1918) or WWII (1941-1945).

Review the application, log in to your library’s FDLP account, and submit your application through askGPO. Both regional and selective libraries are encouraged to apply.

LSCM Pilot Projects are opportunities for FDLP libraries to collaborate with GPO in areas such as cataloging, collection inventory, condition assessments, and preservation. These jointly-conducted projects are envisioned to benefit the larger FDLP community and ultimately to enhance access to the National Collection of U.S. Government Public Information.
