About GODORT Occasional Papers
Background:
In January 2002 the Publications Committee drafted a discussion paper entitled . Included in this paper are both pros and cons regarding whether to undertake such an initiative as well as questions to ask and ideas of how to proceed. This idea was re-visited by the Publications Committee during the 2006 annual meeting and the proposal was brought to Steering by Barb Mann in 2008 (see Publications Committee Minutes Annual, 2008). While the series was discontinued in 2018, it was reinstated in 2023.
Oversight:
This series is under the auspices of the Publication Committee (see PPM Publications Committee Chapter 24 section V. E. "Occasional Papers"). The Editorial Board consists of the Publications Committee Past Chair, Chair-Elect, and two at-large members. The two at-large members are appointed to staggered two-year terms.
Guidelines:
Materials considered for inclusion in this series must pertain to some aspect of government information (e.g., local, state, federal, international). The series served as a place to publish substantial scholarly or analytic articles as well as other materials such as annotated bibliographies, reports, and preliminary research.
