Full depository status is granted to Canadian
libraries that are nominated and approved by a Committee consisting of representatives
of the National Library of Canada and the Depository Services Program. This
status is granted as either English, or French, or bilingual, depending on
the clientele of the library in question. Full Depository Libraries automatically
receive a shipment of all publications listed for distribution by
the Program in the Weekly Checklist of Canadian government publications
for that week.
All other depositories have the status of selective
depository. Selective depository libraries use the Weekly Checklist
to choose those items they are entitled to order. Selective depository
status is granted to Canadian public libraries and libraries of Canadian educational
institutions which are open to the general public or clientele at least twenty
hours per week and have at least one full-time employee.
