If you or one of your patrons is looking for another Federal depository library for networking, a reference referral, or any other reason, we have a Federal Depository Library Directory (FDLD) Tutorial video available to help you.

The five-minute tutorial video covers topics such as:

Orientation to the FDLD.
How to use the advanced search.
The FDLP Network page – how to see which regionals serve which selectives, and where there are special housing or other arrangements between regionals or between regionals and their selectives.
Extra features and search fields available to those who log in before using the FDLD, such as the ability to see depository coordinators’ emails.
How to export a list of your FDLD search results.

We hope you continue to use the FDLD to make the most of working within our remarkable nationwide network of depository libraries.
