Federal Information Interest Group Meeting - June 12th, 12:00pm CDT

  • 1.  Federal Information Interest Group Meeting - June 12th, 12:00pm CDT

    Posted Jun 03, 2025 10:15 AM

    Please join the Federal Information Interest Group on Thursday, June 12th at 12:00pm CDT for a presentation by Kelly Smith (UC San Diego) and Jessica Breen (American University) titled "What's Going On and What Can I Do?! Government Information in Early Trump 2.0." As federal priorities shift, public information can become harder to access – or disappear altogether. Join Kelly and Jessica as they share practical tools and strategies for tracking these changes and preserving at-risk government information and data. Learn about helpful sources for increasing awareness of changes, developing resources such as the Data Rescue Guide to help users navigate shifting access, and actions you can take to support information transparency and preservation.
