Depository Library Information
IUP Libraries has been a depository library for Pennsylvania State (1972) and United States federal (1962) documents for many years. Historically, this collection included information in paper and other tangible formats. More recently, dissemination of government information has moved to electronic format, and access is now primarily over the internet to electronic versions of these key documents.
The main access tool for government information in our collections is our Library Search on the IUP Libraries’ home page. Records for older paper documents and newer federal government documents in electronic format are added to our online catalog to make this important information source easily accessible. For additional options, consult Accessing Government Documents.
Reference guides with more information on accessing government information sources are available from the section of the library website. Questions relating to government information sources should be referred to Chris Clouser or to the Information Desk.
