Item Selection Update Materials Mailed;
Online Updating Takes Place June 2 - July 31

	A packet of item selection update materials was mailed to depository
libraries in late May.  Each library's packet contained a printout of its
current item selections, a password allowing use of the new automated system,
and instructions on how to make the changes online.

	The update period began June 2, 1997.  Though items may be dropped at
any time, they may be added only during the update cycle, which ends on July
31, 1997.

	Some libraries have sent in the soon-to-be-obsolete "green cards" for
making changes.  LPS will hold these and process them after the close of the
update cycle.  LPS strongly recommends that all libraries with Internet access
use the automated system for the most timely processing of their item selection
changes.  Those libraries that do not have Internet access should contact the
Depository Administration Branch by fax at (202) 512-0877, or by e-mail at
lhall@gpo.gov.
