Box 4340 Charlotte Amalie, St. Thomas FOREWORD | am pleased to welcome this first issue of Virgin Islands Government Documents, a quarterly checklist of local government Publications received by depository libraries. By the passage of legislation creating depository libraries, the Govern- ment of the Virgin Islands recognizes its committment to preserve our his- tory and our heritage. By establishing depositories on all three islands, it further recognizes its responsibility to make these records accessible and available to the public. We hope that the systematic building of collections of Virgin Islands government publications, as well as the maintaining of an already existing collection, will encourage researchers, teachers, and students to explore the many areas of government that have yet to be documented. We further hope that the depository collections will provide invaluable source material and historical records for Virgin Islanders of the future. bidtin. fron Virdin C. Brown Commissioner DEPARTMENT OF CONSERVATION & CULTURAL AFFAIRS BUREAU OF LIBRARIES, MUSEUMS, & ARCHAEOLOGICAL SERVICES PREFACE Virgin Islands government publications constitute one of the major resources available to the cr mmunity. In recent years we have seen a great proliferation of docurs:.cs produced by Virgin Islands government agencies, accompanied by a corresponding need by the public for access to the great quantity of information being produced. It is in response to this need that the Bureau of Libraries is pleased to initiate this publication of a check- list of territorial government documents. The purpose of this publication is to provide a comprehensive guide to the government documents resources of the territory, and to thereby avail the public and interested scholars of the tremendous cultural and informa- tional resources represented by the vast numbers of Virgin Islands govern- ment publications. Special emphasis is placed upon encouraging the develop- ment of a cooperative territory-wide network for government documents sources. This checklist of Virgin Islands government documents hopefully will serve as an impetus for this network. The need for this checklist is an immediate one, as there currently exists no comparable list dealing with documents resources in the Virgin Islands. The systematic collecting of public documents not only makes available government sources to scholars and the general public but also ensures their preservation as historical records. Although the Bureau has been active in this area for many years, new depository library legislation makes it possible for us to build and maintain a better and more complete collection, as well as to provide more comprehensive service to the govern- ment and people of the Virgin Islands. The depository law also provides for a records management program to be administered through the Bureau. Unfortunately, fiscal restrictions have made it impossible to implement this program although there are plans to do so in the near future. In view of the fact that we have carried out this project without any additional financia: support, the project staff, particularly Ms. Jeannette Allis, should be com- mended for their fine work. We are pleased to provide Virgin Islands government agencies and the general public with this valuable research tool. We hope that this check- list and the succeeding issues thereof will encourage scholarly work in the area of Virgin Islands history and government; we are very proud to be abie to offer a contribution to these worthy endeavors. 0. <A Ai, c. oh Director and Territorial Librarian INTRODUCTION Virgin Islands Government Documents js a checklist of local govern- ment publications received by the Territorial Librarian during each three- month period under the provisions of the Depository Law. In addition, each checklist inciudes sume older non-current government publications taken from the already existing documents collections and incorporated into the depository. In June 1977, depository libraries for territorial public documents were established in the U.S. Virgin Islands Act No. 3955, Bill No. 7500). The law desiqnated five libraries in the territory as legal depositories: Enid M. Baa Library, St. Thomas; Florence Williams Library, St. Croix, Cruz Bay Library, St. John; Ralph M. Paiewonsky Library, College of the Virgin Is- lands, St. Thomas; St. Croix Campus Library, College of the Virgin Islands. The law requires that each government agency deposit at least ten copies of each public document with the Territorial Librarian. The Territo- rial Librarian of the Bureau of Libraries, Museurms, and Archaeological Services, Department of Conservation and Cultural Affairs, in turn, dis- tributes two copies of each document to each depository library. He also administers the depository system. The Office of the Territorial Librarian at the Enid M. Baa Library, St. Thomas, receives and distributes all government documents for deposit. It also classifies and catalogues each document, keeps shipping and location records, established guidelines for depository collections, and assumes re- sponsibility for preserving, maintaining, and making accessible its retro- spective collection of government documents, as well as those currently received. As part of its legal obligation, the Office of Territorial Librarian is re- quired to issue a quarterly checklist of public documents received. This checklist, cumulated annually, will reflect retrospective as well as current documents as these are gradually subsumed into the depository collection. This checklist is available free of charge in depository libraries, govern- men. agencies, and any other individual or institution requesting it. Further inquiries concerning depository collections should be directed to Docu- ments, Enid M. Baa Library, St. Thomas. Jeannette B. Allis Documents Librarian NOTE ON THE ARRANGEMENT This checklist of Virgin Islands public documents is arranged by classification mumber. The classification scheme reflects the government organization by Departments, Instrumentalities, and Boards and Commissions rather than in terms of the Execitive, Legislative and Judicial branches of government. It was felt that preserving the integrity of the various government units by specific function and authority would facilitate identification, accessibility, and usability to the public. Ezi:h Department is assigned two letters in an alphabetical sequence preceded by V for Virgin Islands. Divisions within each Department are assigned numbers based on a notation table. A docu- ment is further divided by type of material (i.e annual report, newsletter), and by title or year, (see appendix 2). For example: Information, v. 2, no. 1, 1977, published by the Bureau of Libraries, Museums, and Archaeoiogical Services. VCN136.3:10/7/977/no.1. VCN = Department of Conservation 136 = Bureau of Libraries, Museums, and Archaeological Services 3 = Newsletter (form) 10/7 = Information (title) 977/no. 1 = year and number Government Instrumentalities are designated VY preceding tiie assigned letters, while Boards and Commissions are designated VX. In accordance with the classification scheme, items in the checklist are listed under Department and arranged by Division or Bureau with these b ing in alphabetical order by key word. It is the in- tention of the Depository Center to issue separately a comprehensive, annotated guide to the Virgin Islands Government which should facilitate use of the documents. A note beneath an entry indicates its location. No note means that the item i#available in all depository libraries. The following codes have been assigned to the five depository libraries: JPCB Cruz Bay Public Library, St. John TCVI Ralph M. Paiewonsky Library, College of the Virgin Islands, St. Thomas TPEB Enid M. Baa Library and Archives, St. Thomas «CVI St. Croix Campus Library, College of the Virgin Islands XPFW Florence Williams Public Library, Christiansted, St. Croix The listing of entries is followed by a Subject Index, and an Author/Title Index. In both indexes, the entry is keyed to the classification number of the document. The Subject Index utilizes Library of Congress Subject Headings which are reflected in the card catalogues of the depository libraries, as are the Author/Title entries. Where more than one issue of a serial has been accessioned in any ene quarterly period, each issue is listed separately under the entry. The entries and issues will reflect not only items currently received but also older documents which are already part of the Documents collection but are now being made part of the Depository. For exampie, Annual Reports for the Department of Educ listed in this issue include, not only the most current report, but also those going back to 1922. Where the frequency of a serial is not self-evident from its title, this information is provided as part of the entry. An illustration note and pagination is also included. For more extensive information about a publication, the card catalog at any of the depository libraries should be consulted.

E Seuseon Legislative Secretary VIRGIN ISLANDS DOCUMENTS CLASSIFICATION SCHEME The Virgin Islands Documents Classification (VIDC) is adapted from the Superintendent of Document: Classification, and the Classification Scheme for Pennsylvania State Publications. The Classification notation is composed of acombination of letters and numbers. The first part of the VIDC consists of one or two letters to distinguish the issuing Department or Agency, preceded by a V to identify Virgin Islands, i.e. VAD = Virgin Islands Department of Agriculture. VLE = Virgin !slands Legislature, VGO = Office of the Governor. The next part of the notation designates the Division or Bureau within the department that is directly responsible for the publication. A publication issued by the department as a whole or by the Com- missioner’s Office receives a 1. A publication issued by a division or a bureau receives two digits derived from the first two letters of the name of the division and based on the following tables: TABLE | ijk -6 ILm.n-7 thus, YCD218. = Depar ‘ment of Commerce, Division of Tourism VCN136. = Depariment of Conservation and Cultural Affairs. Bureau of Libraries, Museums, and Archaeological Services. Following the period, comes the number for series form. The following numbers are assigned to series forms: 1: Annual Reports; 1/2: Mcnthly Reports 2: General Publications (Unnumbered publications of a miscel- laneous nature) Bulletins or newsletters Circulars Laws (administered by the agency and published by it) Regulations, rules and instructions Releases Handbooks, manuals, guides A root number is thereby created consisting of Department, Division, and type of publication, i.e. VCD 1.1: = Annual Report of the Department of Commerce. For publications with no distinctive title, dates or series numbers are added to this root number, i.e. VCD 1.1:977 = Department of Commerce, Annual Report for 1977. When there is a distinctive title, the two tables above are used for a notation based <-n the first two letters of the key word of the title. If further distinction is necessary, the first letter of the second word is also used. Since there may be several titles of series starting with the same letters, a diagonal mark *‘/ "’ is used to separate the first, second, and/or third numbers in the notation, thus keeping the materials as alphabetical as possible. If the title is part of a series, dates or series numbers may a!so be added. example: Information, v. tl, no.-1, 1977, published by the Bureau of Libraries, Mu- seums and Archaeological Services. VCN 136.3:10/7/977/no.1 VCN = Department of Conservation 136. = Bureau of Libraries 3: - newsletter (form) 10/7 = Information (title) 977/no.1 = year and number Instrumentalities are designated VY followed by the initial letters of the key word, or an assigned letter and the numbers. Boards and Com- missions are designated VX. For example: VYCV42 = College of the Virgin Islands, Caribbean Research Institute. As the collection expands and as changes occur in the government structure, it may become necessary to adapt the rules outlined above. Al- though it is expected that some discrepancies will develop, it is hoped that the VIDC will be able to accommodate most of these changes without major adjustments.
