Responsibilities of Connecticut Document Depository Libraries
Provide space to house the documents. State documents need not be maintained in a separate collection unless the receiving library prefers to do so.
Shipments of paper and electronic Connecticut Documents are to be regularly processed into the library's collection. Cataloging is supplied by the Connecticut State Library.
Maintain orderly, systematic records of receipt of the documents.
Connecticut Documents are to be made available to the general public during the library's normal operating hours. College, university and special libraries that are depositories must be willing to lend through interlibrary loan and to permit public access to the documents within the library. Public libraries are encouraged to lend documents through Connecticard and interlibrary loan.
The collection will be maintained in accordance to the official retention/disposal policy.
Responsibility for the collection is to be assigned to a professional librarian.
Agree to permit State Library staff to inspect the document collection periodically.
