Colorado Depository Library Resources: Home

Welcome!

Welcome to the Colorado Government Publications Interest Group Website!

These resources are designed to serve the Government Publications communities of Colorado. GoPIG is a group of government publications librarians and other interested parties organized to provide a local pool of knowledge and experience for other librarians, as well as a general lifesaver for those of us forced to swim the waters of government documents. Membership in GoPIG is open to all interested parties. Please feel free to join us at any of the upcoming meetings. Please contact Kate Tallman if you’re a new member! .

NEW! Limited Print Distribution Framework 

GPO has moved to an all-digital format and limited print will be distributed beginning in 2024. "This new, limited print distribution model acknowledges the different print needs and requirements of the National Collection Service Areas (NCSAs). Cost savings on printing, postage, and processing will allow GPO to increase investment in digital content management initiatives that serve FDLs and patrons’ Government information needs"

The Preliminary Print Distribution Titles List, Library Allocations provides a list of all of the federal depository libraries and associated print titles. 

Microfiche Phase-Out

  • GPO began to phase out the microfiche format in 2021/2022. Selective depositories do not need to update DSIMS unless they want to begin to receive titles in paper
  • April 2022- Libraries were asked to update DSIMS with tangible item selections. CU Boulder is signing a Selective Housing Agreement
