Web Development - The U.S. Government Printing Office's (GPO) Federal Depository Library Program (FDLP)
The U.S. Government Printing Office's (GPO) Federal Depository Library Program (FDLP) was established by Congress to ensure that the American public has access to its Government's information. Since 1813, depository libraries have safeguarded the public's right to know by collecting, organizing, maintaining, preserving, and assisting users with information from the Federal Government. The FDLP provides Government information at no cost to designated depository libraries throughout the country and territories. These depository libraries, in turn, provide local, no-fee access to Government information in an impartial environment with professional assistance.
As part of its services to Federal depository libraries, GPO has created Web sites that are designed to keep the community informed of Program-related news and updates, provide tools that allow libraries to manage their participation in the FDLP, and also provide social networking and collaborative opportunities. These sites utilize Joomla!, an open source Web content management system (CMS).
The Contractor shall perform specific tasks related to Joomla! that includes evaluating and providing GPO with a work breakdown structure (WBS) and level of effort (LOE) for each phase of this project. Task Orders will be related to the creation and enhancement of Joomla!-based tools related to the following Web sites:
