VSU Celebrates 70 Years of Preserving Access, Empowering Inquiry, Supporting Democracy
VALDOSTA — Valdosta State University recently celebrated the 70th anniversary of Odum Library becoming a member of the Federal Depository Library Program (FDLP). This milestone underscores the library’s long-standing commitment to ensuring free and equitable access to United States government information for students, faculty, researchers, and the broader community.
Since joining the FDLP in April 1956, VSU’s Odum Library has served as a vital gateway to federal publications, providing access to a vast collection of government documents in both print and digital formats. These resources span a wide range of topics supporting academic inquiry, civic engagement, and informed decision-making.
VSU’s Odum Library is the only member of the FDLP in the southern quadrant of the state of Georgia.
