Library of Congress Office of the Inspector General’s Semiannual Report to Congress Sept 2015

During this semiannual period, we issued a report on the Library’s need to determine an eDeposit and eCollections strategy and two reports on security at the Library’s facility in Landover, Maryland. These reports highlighted a number of issues of significant importance to the Library. For example, the eDeposit audit report revealed that the Library lacks an overarching eCollections strategy for ingesting and protecting electronic works, which takes into account the unique business needs of the U.S. Copyright Office and the necessity to better manage critical financial management information. In addition, the Library’s new senior leadership team provided OIG with significant additional funding to support contracting for a wide variety of information technology-related audit efforts.
