Federal Agency Appropriations

AALL works annually to support the budget requests of those agencies that promote and provide access to government information, including the Government Printing Office (GPO), Library of Congress (LC), National Archives and Records Administration (NARA), and Institute of Museum and Library Services (IMLS), among others. These agencies inform the American public about their government and promote a healthy democracy.
