Okay – you asked for comments. This does not mean I have my mind made up and set. These are only comments and questions. PPMs are already written up? Does this mean it is a done deal? If so – the URL for GIC resources is incorrect. Looking at proposed changes to committees – I don't see ...

Hi folks - Would it be possible to create a few groups in LibGuides to help organize GODORT guides? And then assign guides to the groups (if you want a guide in more than one group, making a redirect guide is one solution).

Not quite answering your question - and speaking ONLY for myself. I would say it depends on the regulations/rules covering your state documents program. (It could be in legal state regulations - double check). Are you in a state documents depository program? Who runs the program? I'd ...

One thing that I have raised with Census feedback is that data.census.gov gives you dynamic tables and you can get a URL that will create a table with the exact factors selected.
