LSCMs Past, Present, and Future of Keeping America Informed FY2011 Year in Review: “One LSCM focus this past year has been to increase content in GPOs Federal Digital System (FDsys) by improving and escalating our efforts to partner and collaborate with Federal depository libraries, Federal executive agencies, the Library of Congress, and the Federal courts. As a result, many new collections have been added to FDsys, including Federal court opinions and digitized historic volumes of the U.S. Statutes at Large. FDsys became GPOs official system of record in December 2010, and GPO Access is now archive-only and will be officially shut down in 2012. LSCM staff have been instrumental in making the transition from GPO Access to FDsys a success. Its important to point out that the eCFR is not affected by this change and will continue to be updated and remain publicly accessible.”
