Arizona Depository Library Council

About the Arizona Depository Library Council

From Section VI of the State Plan for Federal Depository Library Service:

    Current Situation
    Effective channels for discussing interests, needs and problems specific to depository libraries within the state have never been established.   Many factors have contributed to this situation, including geographic distribution of depository libraries and variation in the sizes and types of depository collections within these libraries.   The need for such a forum is illustrated by the variety and nature of issues addressed in this plan.

    Desired Situation
    A depository library forum, consisting of the designated responsible depository librarians and other interested parties within the state, will meet on a regular basis to discuss documents issues and to recommend actions to resolve such concerns.

    Goal
    To Provide Depository Librarians Both Opportunity and Encouragement for Implementing this Plan and Facilitating Future Communication and Problem Solving Through the Formation and Operation of the "Arizona Depository Library Council."

    Objectives

    1. To convene the Arizona Depository Library Council, comprised of representatives from the federal depository libraries in Arizona and others committed to accomplishing the objectives of this plan.
    2. The Arizona Depository Library Council will:
      1. formulate its own membership and operating rules;
      2. establish a formal agenda of concerns to be addressed and a timetable in which to address them;
      3. adopt, as its primary mission, the implementation of this plan.   The Council will also establish criteria for evaluating the objectives of this plan and make revisions as needed;
      4. use whatever means considered appropriate to facilitate communication and cooperation among Arizona depository libraries with the overall goal of enhancing access to depository library collections and improving depository library services for all citizens of the state.

Members of the Arizona Council

The membership of the Arizona Depository Library Council consists of librarians representing Arizona's 14 federal depository libraries.   Members of Arizona's Depository Library Council provide advice on matters relating to the Federal Depository Library Program.
