2023 Fall DLC: Federal Depository Collections: Where Do We Belong in the Academic Library?
Speakers
- Amy Laub, Federal Regional Depository Librarian, University of Kentucky Libraries, William T. Young Library
- Ryan Wilder, Federal Depository Unit Collection Management Library Specialist, University of Kentucky Libraries, William T. Young Library
Description
Our library recently went through a reorganization, and the Federal Depository Unit was moved from Collections to Special Collections. We're still figuring out what that means but it prompted us to look at where other regionals are located within their organizations. We will give an overview of the information we found, but more importantly look at and discuss whether that location within an organization has an impact on depository services now and in the future as we move to a digital FDLP.
