Federal Depository Library Conference
September is the month for the annual conference. The conference is the largest annual gathering devoted to U.S. Government information librarianship in the country, and is a wonderful opportunity for networking and continuing learning.
It is very helpful to attend this conference in person if you possibly can, although GPO also broadcasts as many of the sessions as possible so that people can remotely attend too.
You can view past recordings and transcripts and see slides on FDLP.gov.
The FDLP Academy Training Repository is a great way to learn about government information resources and to manage your depository operation. Watch recorded training sessions or share them with a colleague.
