ADMINISTRATIVE NOTES Newsletter of the Federal Depository Library Program --------------------------------------------------------------------- February 15, 2000 GP 3.16/3-2:21/04 (Vol. 21, no. 04) --------------------------------------------------------------------- You Can Help Plan the 2000 Federal Depository Conference Once again, the Library Programs Service is seeking assistance from the depository community to identify topics, potential agencies, speakers, and information products for the 2000 Federal Depository Conference. The participants in the 1999 Federal Depository Conference placed the highest value on the Federal agency presentations, especially the latest information on their electronic products and services. The one-hour orientation to the Conference/Council on Sunday afternoon and the three-hour brainstorming session with experienced documents librarians and GPO staff on Monday afternoon were hits as well. Hints on writing the self-study, Documents Data Miner, depository management, and tours were very popular. Your ideas are needed to create another successful Federal Depository Conference. The 2000 conference, regional meeting, and Depository Library Council will be held at the Holiday Inn-Westpark in Arlington, VA during the week of October 22-25, 2000. If you would like to volunteer as a speaker or can identify potential speakers or topics, please contact Sheila McGarr by telephone on (202) 512-1119; by fax on (202) 512-1432; or by e-mail on no later than May 5.
