TITLE-44 AND FEDERAL INFORMATION DISSEMINATION - A TECHNOLOGY AND POLICY CHALLENGE FOR CONGRESS - A VIEWPOINT

This viewpoint addresses the issues surrounding the impact of technological change on those chapters of Title 44 of the United States Code that provide the statutory framework for the Government Printing Office, including its document sales and depository library distribution programs. Technological advances are creating a number of problems and challenges not specifically addressed by existing statutes. Legislative action is urgently needed to resolve federal information dissemination issues and to set the direction of federal activities for the future. © 1990.
