Hi Kirsten, the above line is from the Hathi Trust Constitutional Convention ballot proposal which passed related to government information. Is this still true? Also, what you’ve put together is terrific. Would you add another POV and
include http://freegovinfo.info/node/3539 Suzanne Sear’s response to the ARL statement, and also,
http://www.surveymonkey.com/s/38FBBJR, a link to the online petition in support of GPO. Then ALAers will have a more complete lay of the land. I am a member of the ALA ACRL Government Relations Committee,
and the committee will also be revising its legislative update for 2012 on GPO FDLs, and related. Jeff Bullington is the committee chair. Thanks!
