About FEDLINK
The Federal Library and Information Network (FEDLINK) is an organization of federal agencies working together to achieve optimum use of the resources and facilities of federal libraries and information centers. FEDLINK serves as a forum for discussion of the policies, programs, procedures, and technologies that affect the federal information community and the services they provide to their agencies, to the Congress, the federal courts, and the American people.
2025 marks the 60th anniversary of FEDLINK.
The Federal Library and Information Network (FEDLINK) was created in 1965 as the Federal Library Committee by joint action of the Library of Congress and the Bureau of the Budget (currently the Office of Management and Budget). Read about the original establishment and functions in the Federal Register. Later known as the Federal Library and Information Center Committee (FLICC), the organization revised its bylaws in 2012 to create FEDLINK as it is known today.
