This study identified and described Federal information inventory/locator systems. Such locator systems provide an important means of accessing a range of government information not previously available to the public or other government officials. The report should be considered as Phase 2 to the study Federal Information Inventory/Locator Systems: From Burden to Benefit: Final Report (McClure, et al., 1990). The 1990 report contains background information about Federal locator systems and the recommendation for a Government-Wide Information Inventory/Locator System (GIILS). The goal of Phase 2 was to improve access to and use of U.S. government information. The project's methodology relied on multiple data collection and analysis strategies employing primarily a qualitative approach with the following specific objectives: (1) to identify existing and planned Federal locators; (2) to identify critical success factors in the design, development and maintenance of a Federal agency locator; and (3) to identify and discuss key issues and policy recommendations related to the design and development of a government-wide locator system.
