National Library Week is a national observance sponsored by the American Library Association to celebrate the contributions of libraries and to promote library use and support.\u00a0 Libraries around the country are hosting their own celebrations, raising awareness about their importance<\/a><\/strong> and calling attention to their sometimes endangered status<\/a><\/strong>.<\/p>\n

At Ross Pendergraft Library, we\u2019re using this as an opportunity celebrate our own milestone: 90 years as a federal depository\u00a0library.\u00a0 The Federal Depository Library Program<\/a><\/strong> was established by Congress nearly 200 years ago to ensure the American public has free and unrestricted access to information published by the government.\u00a0 The Government Printing Office distributes this information, in both paper and electronic formats, to selected libraries around the country.<\/p>\n

Since 1925, the ATU Library has participated in this program, and today, we currently hold over 119,000 federal documents. \u00a0To find government publications including the\u00a0<\/span>Budget of the United States Government<\/a><\/strong>, the\u00a0<\/span>Code of Federal Regulations<\/a><\/strong>, the\u00a0<\/span>Statistical Abstract of the United States<\/a><\/strong>, and much more, search our\u00a0<\/span>online catalog<\/a><\/strong>.<\/span>\u00a0 <\/span><\/p>\n

Most of our documents are located online, but we also have many publications in print located in the US\u00a0documents section on the\u00a0<\/span>second floor<\/a><\/strong> of the Library.\u00a0 For additional help locating these important resources, contact our esteemed government documents librarian,\u00a0<\/span>Frances Hager<\/a><\/strong>.\u00a0<\/span><\/p>\n

For all other inquiries\u00a0about National Library Week, the Federal Depository Program, or the flavor of the cake, send us an email at askalibrarian@atu.edu<\/a><\/strong>. \u00a0You can also be the first to know the next time we throw down by liking us on Facebook <\/a><\/strong>or following us on Twitter<\/a><\/strong>. \u00a0See you at the party!<\/span><\/p>\n
