The U.S. Government Printing Office (GPO) has released two new Public Access Assessment resources, an Initial Review Checklist and Guidelines for Completing the Initial Review. These documents will be used by GPO personnel as they start an assessment of an individual depository library. Focus on Access, Collections, Service, and Cooperative Efforts, an update of the document describing the focus and organization of the assessments, has also been released.  

We encourage you to review these resources, and we welcome your comments. The deadline for comments is Friday, May 23, 2008.
