The N&O is a tool used by depository librarians for collection development purposes, in which selective depositories seeking to dispose of publications withdrawn from their collections may place publications with other depositories. The University of North Dakota has been a depository library since 1890, and cooperates with North Dakota State University in Fargo, ND, to serve as joint regional depository for the state. Jim Beasley is Head of Government Documents. Gordon will be the sixth volunteer editor of the list, following Clyde Hordusky (1983-1987), Nancy Hanks (1987-1990), Beverly Norton (1990-1992), George Carlson (1992-1996), and Kevin Reynolds (1996-2001).
