Council Meeting Video Now Showing on GPO Access

A video showing a portion of the Spring 2003 meeting of the Depository Library Council to the Public Printer is now available for viewing on GPO Access, at <http://www.access.gpo.gov/su_docs/fdlp/council/sp03dlc_videos.html>. The videotaping was undertaken as a pilot project to bring the Council deliberations to a wider audience.

The Council meeting was held in Reno, NV, on April 6-9. The video was taken on Monday, April 7. The Public Printer, Bruce James, asked the Council and the entire depository community to visualize a new Federal information dissemination process to meet the government information needs of the general public and the depository libraries in the 21^st century. Animated discussion on "Visualizing the Depository Library of the Future" then ensued. As the participants contemplated a future in which almost all government information would be in digital form, questions and debates arose on a wide range of issues.
