Staff and Faculty Scholarship
Government documents are documents published on behalf of government agencies, Congress, the president, or the judiciary. A government document can be anything from a Census report to a catalog from an exhibit at the National Gallery of Art. Documents, such as Congressional bills, testimonies, court cases, and patents document everything, regardless of how good or bad.

Docs For Digital Humanities: An Example That Could Launch New Possibilities, Laura Baker
Docs For Digital Humanities: An Example That Could Launch New Possibilities, Laura Baker
Library Research and Publications
As part of a class on Europe after WWI, the library helped create an interactive assignment in which students looked at geographic and political changes in European countries as a key to understanding the effects of WWI. Based on government publications, students created and annotated digital maps to show how the Treaty of Versailles redrew country boundaries and changed governmental alliances. The library’s government documents collection made the assignment possible.
We describe the project, the outcomes it produced, and most importantly, what it suggests about a burgeoning role for govdocs that could cast the collection in a new light. The …

Databases A To Free: Open Access Databases' Presence On The Databases A To Z Page, Vickie Montigaud-Green, Taylor Baugher
Presentations
Starting with the premise that most academic libraries have a Libguides Database A-Z, our poster explains the metacognitive exercise in evaluating our Database A-Z list and adding open-source/ government databases. We realized that after graduation, our students would no longer have access to expensive journals and databases; and, our goal was to provide students with free academic standard options that they would continue to use in their post-graduation lives.
The Machiavellian Govpub Librarian: The Value Of Internal Promotion Aka How A Politically Unsavvy Librarian Learned The Necessity Of Promoting To Colleagues, Laura Baker
Library Research and Publications
This poster communicates ways and reasons for promoting the government documents collections WITHIN the library and influencing decision makers. Librarians go to great lengths to promote our collections to patrons, but what about to our directors and co-workers? When our library had a change of leadership, our status as a depository was questioned. In the book The Machiavellian Librarian by Aho and Bennet, the editors contend that librarians need to boost their ability to influence decision makers. They suggest that, minus his misanthropic extremes, Machiavelli – a master at politics—has many things to teach others about the fine art of …

The Collaborative Federal Depository Program: Managing Federal Depository Library Program Collections In The Southeast, Renee Bosman, Cheryle Cole-Bennett, Abigail Desoto, Amy Laub-Carroll
Library Faculty and Staff Publications
The Collaborative Federal Depository Program (CFDP) is an endeavor by the Association of Southeastern Research Libraries (ASERL) and Federal Depository Library Program (FDLP) libraries in the Southeast to create collaborative “Centers of Excellence” (COE) collections of tangible U.S. Government information.
The CFDP was created to provide workable solutions to address the increasing cost of managing, preserving, and providing access to large collections of federal government publications in the Southeast. From its beginning, the program sought to not only relieve collection management pressures among Regional and Selective depository libraries but to provide a model for future development of innovative shared collections …
No Ir? No Problem: The Resourceful Librarian’S Guide To Archiving Digitized Government Publications With The Internet Archive, Laura Baker
Library Research and Publications
This poster illustrates our practice and process of using the Internet Archive (IA) as a repository for digitized government publications. It shows how libraries without an institutional repository, or those that have an IR but lack support for uploading depository content, can still participate in digitization and preservation programs. By doing so, the library can highlight the value of its depository collection.
