Depository library distribution.—As required, Government publications are supplied to libraries which are designated as depositories for Government publications. This program includes tangible information products, online access, and locator services provided via the Internet from GPO Access.

The principal publication is the ‘‘Monthly Catalog of U.S. Government Publications.’’ International exchange.—The Office of Superintendent of Documents distributes Government publications to foreign governments which agree, as indicated by the Library of Congress, to send to the United States similar publications of their governments for delivery to the Library of Congress.
