Digital Dissemination of Access Content Packages |
|
Interest has been expressed by customers and partners in creating their own digital collections of content. This includes building digital collections by accepting digital files and metadata disseminated by GPO’s Federal Digital System (FDsys).
GPO will make available Access Content Packages (ACP’s) to download and store on local systems. For instance, for Federal depository libraries (FDL’s), this may assist in efforts to build digital collections at their libraries.
GPO will continue to maintain responsibility for managing Federal content within scope of the Federal Depository Library Program (FDLP), and providing free and permanent access to this information. LOCKSSThe LOCKSS permission statement, LOCKSS system has permission to collect, preserve, and serve this Archival Unit, has been added at all levels in order to allow participants in the LOCKSS program to crawl FDsys content or the FDsys bulk data repository. By allowing LOCKSS crawlers to crawl at any level, participants in the LOCKSS program can choose to collect specific collections or years, and can continue to collect new and updated content as it is added to FDsys.
LOCKSS permission statements for FDsys content are included in the Sitemap XML files. More information about SiteMaps.
LOCKSS permission statements for the FDsys bulk data repository are included in lockss.html files in the following locations:
