U.S. Government Publication Collections

The four CONSORT colleges are justifiably proud of our U.S. government publications collections. Some of the collections are among the oldest depository collections. All material is receiving full cataloging in OCLC and CONSORT. Our cooperative cataloging project has received national recognition. For further information see the descriptions of the collections at:

• Denison University
• Kenyon College
• Ohio Wesleyan University
• The College of Wooster
• The Five Colleges of Ohio

The Government Documents group was the recipient of the 2000 Bernadine Abbott Hoduski Founder's Award presented by the American Library Association Government Documents Round Table.
