Federal Depository Library

Dacus Library has been a part of the U.S. Federal Depository Library Program since 1896. As a selective depository, we receive 35 percent of the documents published by the U.S. government. Our collection supports the research and teaching mission of Winthrop University and the information needs of the 5th Congressional District.
The Government Documents Department is open Monday - Friday from 8:30 to 5:00.
As a security measure, a Winthrop University identification card or a scheduled appointment will be required to access the government documents collection. Researchers must call, write or e-mail before coming to the library so that we may better serve you.
Many government documents are available full-text on the Internet. Click on the links to the left for quick access to government data and indexes.

Government Document of the Week

Report of the Experts Scientific Workshop on Critical Research Needs for the Development of New or Revised Recreational Water Quality Criteria /2007
Environmental Protection Agency.

“Since the U.S. Environmental Protection Agency last published recreational water quality criteria in 1986, there have been significant advances, particularly in the areas of molecular biology, microbiology, and analytical chemistry. EPA believes that that these new scientific and technical advances need to be factored into the development of new or revised Clean Water Act (CWA) Section 304(a) criteria for recreation.”
