GPO is now seeking volunteers to participate in testing its redesigned Needs & Offers (N&O) service.

Using this automated service, Federal depository libraries seeking to dispose of publications withdrawn from their collections may place publications with other depositories, while libraries seeking publications missing from their depository collections can state their needs.

Beta testers are being asked to create and maintain "ads", test the search feature, interact with other beta users by claiming mock items, and providing feedback on how GPO can improve the service.

This will be a CLOSED beta test consisting of 30 users on a first come, first serve basis. Complete the form below to apply to be a beta tester. The beta test will be open for approximately one month. Those selected for the test will be notified next week with their FDLP Desktop login information.
