Visualizing the International Government Information Collection at University of Illinois in Urbana-Champaign
Bibliographic record
Abstract
The University of Illinois at Urbana-Champaign (UIUC) has been a Federal Depository Library Program (FDLP) Library since 1907. Over the course of time, the Library has amassed one of the largest collections of government information with materials covering areas of agriculture, education, the environment, health, natural resources, and transportation.1 In addition to federal and state publications in the United States, the Library also possesses an impressive collection of international government publications. The University Library became a United Nations depository in 1946 and Canadian depository in 1927, along with an extensive collection of British government resources.2 The collection not only serves as a preservation of original documents from international agencies and governments for research, but also represents the diversity of the library collection and history at UIUC. While there have been many efforts to promote and focus on the federal information collection, the international government collection can be explored more to enhance visibility and usage of the materials.

How this classification was reachedexpand
Full frame machine prediction
Teacher imitationNot calibrated prevalence, not ground truth. Human validation pending. The Gemma side is a direct model label for every work in the frame, read from the title-only record. The Codex side is a classifier learned from the 10,348 direct Codex labels and calibrated to design-weighted sample rates; fields without enough sample support carry no Codex call. Candidate is the union of the two sides; consensus is their intersection. These outputs are machine_predicted_unvalidated and are not human labels.

Machine scores (provisional)
The two teacher heads of the student model, read on this work. A score orders the frame for review; it never asserts a category, and the validation status ships verbatim with every row.
Baseline scores from an immature model (maturity gate not passed, 7 training rounds). Scores rank; they never assert a category.
score_only:v0-immature-baseline · verbatim from the scoring run: score_only means the number may rank works, and no category label ships from itClassification
machine, unvalidatedMachine predicted; a candidate call from one source (direct Gemma or distilled Codex), not a consensus.
