From lpsmail@access.digex.netThu Nov 9 15:39:49 1995 Date: Thu, 9 Nov 1995 11:09:50 CST From: Shipment Reply to: Discussion of Government Document Issues To: Multiple recipients of list GOVDOC-L Subject: ADNOTES: VOLUNTEER TO UPDATE THE SUPERSEDED LIST ----------------------------Original message---------------------------- THE MESSAGE BELOW IS FROM ADMINISTRATIVE NOTES, VOL. 16, #15 (Nov. 15, 1995). VOLUNTEERS NEEDED FOR UPDATING THE SUPERSEDED LIST The Library Programs Service (LPS) needs a few good documents librarians to help in updating the Superseded List. This LPS publication lists superseded materials that depositories may discard before the normal 5-year retention period. The last edition was published in 1992; and though updates have appeared in Administrative Notes and its Technical Supplement, a complete revision is now necessary. LPS would like to work with a Superseded List Revision Committee to complete this important task. Committee members should have access to a large depository collection and should be able to work with tables in WordPerfect 5.1. Each committee member will update one or more sections of the list by SuDocs class. LPS will provide members with their section of the current list on a disk in WordPerfect 5.1 format, as well as more detailed guidelines. The expected target date for submission of revisions to LPS is April 1, 1996. This is a special project that will benefit the entire documents community. Please volunteer by December 15, 1995. If you would like to work on the Superseded List Revision Committee, please contact: Sheila McGarr Chief, Depository Services Library Programs Service (SLLD) U.S. Government Printing Office Washington, DC 20401 Fax: 202-512-1432 E-mail: inspect@access.digex.net Let her know if there is a particular SuDocs class or classes that you would like to work on.
