The FDLP has a Librarian in Charge
The Federal Depository Library Program now has one of it’s own in charge of the program. Public Printer Bill Boarman has named librarian Mary Alice Baish as Superintendent of Documents for the U.S. Government Printing Office (GPO).

Mary Alice will oversee GPO’s Library Services & Content Management unit, Publication & Information Sales unit, and the management of GPO’s Federal Digital System (FDsys). She will work with 1,200 Federal depository libraries through the FDLP to ensure Government information is available in all forms to the public.
I see this as good news for the future of the program.
