Four Libraries Expand Preservation Steward Agreements with GPO WASHINGTON —Libraries at the University of Minnesota, the University of Hawai’i at Mãnoa, the University of Kentucky, and the University of South Carolina have expanded upon their Preservation Steward collections with the U.S. Government Publishing Office (GPO). To help libraries meet the needs of efficient Government document stewardship in the digital era, GPO has established Preservation Stewards to support continued public access to U.S. Government documents in print format. These libraries contribute significantly to the effort to preserve printed documents. Through the agreement, many libraries also serve as digital access partners providing digital access to Government information. “On behalf of GPO and the American public, I thank these four libraries for providing our citizens with access to vital Government documents,” said GPO Director Hugh Nathanial Halpern. “With each new document added comes progress toward delivering on our vision of an America Informed.” University of Minnesota Libraries: University of Hawai’i at Mãnoa, Hamilton Library: University of Kentucky Libraries: University of South Carolina Thomas Cooper Library: About GPO
