NC State Publications Clearinghouse:
Providing Access to State Government Publications
The NC State Documents Depository System was created by GS 125-11 and became effective on October 1, 1987. The Publications Clearinghouse collects, catalogs, classifies, and distributes NC agency publications to the members of the depository system.
In addition, the Government and Heritage Library is mandated to serve as the official permanent depository for all state publications. Clearinghouse staff and depository librarians work together to facilitate access to current and historic agency publications to all North Carolinians.
In response to the shift in publishing practices from print to digital publishing, the Clearinghouse is now collecting, cataloging and adding digital publications to our State Publications Collection and adding records for these items to WorldCat. The repository provides a unique, stable URL for each publication. These "permanent" URL's may be used by libraries in library catalog records and on web pages. The Digital Information Management Program manages digital preservation for all items in the repository.
The Clearinghouse is currently phasing out microfiche reproduction. The last shipments of microfiche will be distributed to libraries during the first or second week of September.
