GPO CELEBRATES 150 YEARS OF
KEEPING AMERICA INFORMED

The U.S. Government Printing Office (GPO) marks a milestone on March 4th
when it celebrates 150 years of producing and delivering Government
information for all three branches of the Federal Government and the
public. GPO opened its doors on March 4, 1861, the same day President
Abraham Lincoln took the oath of office. Throughout its history the agency
has used constantly changing technologies to meet the needs of the
Congress, Federal agencies, and the public. During GPO's early days,
employees relied on ink and paper to set the text for The Emancipation
Proclamation. Today, as another President from Illinois leads the Nation,
GPO employees are using the latest digital technology to document the
actions of our Government while carrying out its founding mission of
Keeping America Informed. While GPO's past has been about printing, its
present and future are being defined by digital information technologies.
In fact, GPO today is the product of more than a generation of investment
in digital production and dissemination technologies, an investment that
has yielded stunning improvements in productivity, capability, and savings
for the taxpayers, savings of 66% on the cost of congressional printing
alone.

.

Employing just 2,200 staff, fewer than at any time in the past century,
GPO now provides a range of products and activities that could only have
been dreamed of 30 years ago: online databases of Federal documents with
state-of-the-art search and retrieval capabilities available to the public
without charge, Government publications available as e-Books, passports
and smart cards with electronic chips carrying biometric data, print
products on sustainable substrates using vegetable oil based inks, and a
public presence not only on the Web but on Twitter, Facebook, and You
Tube.

.

In addition, GPO's partnership with the printing industry is responsible
for producing 75% of the Government's needs and enormous savings to the
taxpayer, while supporting tens of thousands of jobs in the small printing
businesses throughout the Nation, and its partnership with more than 1,200
Federal depository libraries across the country supplies the Federal
information needs of millions of students, researchers, businesses, and
others every year with both digital and print products.

.

GPO is an agency that performs one of the most vital services for our
country: keeping the public informed on the workings of our Government.
The agency's record of technological change in the service of our country
is second to none in the Federal Government, and a great testament to the
skill and dedication of our employees, said Public Printer Bill Boarman.

.

With 2,200 employees, GPO is the Federal Government's primary resource for
producing, procuring, cataloging, indexing, authenticating, disseminating,
and preserving the official information products of the U.S. Government in
digital and tangible forms. GPO is responsible for the production and
distribution of information products and services for all three branches
of the Federal Government, including U.S. passports

Keeping America Informed: The United States Government Printing Office
150 Years of Service to the Nation
Publisher: Government Printing Office
http://bookstore.gpo.gov/collections/gpo-keeping-america-informed.jsp

.

.

Description:

.

.

For 150 years, U.S. Government Printing Office (GPO) has produced the
digital documents of democracy crucial to an informed citizenry. Keeping
America Informed: the U.S. Government Printing Office, 150 Years of
Service to the Nation, published to mark GPO's 150th anniversary as a
Federal agency, tells the story of this unique organization through a
readable and concise narrative and numerous historic photographs, many of
them never before published.

.

This handsome new volume provides a panoramic view of GPO, which opened
its doors for business on March 4, 1861, as Abraham Lincoln was
inaugurated as the 16th president of the United States. After a
description of the previous history of publick printing and the founding
of GPO, Keeping America Informed covers the agency's physical and
technological growth in the Gilded Age, its reform during the Progressive
Era, and its crucial role in supporting the Government's efforts to
grapple with the Great Depression and two world wars.

.

Post-World War II, the book describes GPO's transition from traditional
printing to the digital technology of today. It also highlights the hugely
significant role the agency has played in the dissemination of federal
Government information through its publications sales and Federal
depository library programs.

.

Much of the information in Keeping America Informed is new, the product of
the latest research into GPO's history. Above all, its authoritative text
and unique images depict the enormous contribution of its employees, past
and present, to the well-being of the American people and nation.
