Our mission

Free Government Information (FGI) is a place for initiating dialogue and building consensus among the various players (libraries, government agencies, non-profit organizations, researchers, journalists, etc.) who have a stake in the preservation of and perpetual free access to government information. FGI promotes free government information through collaboration, education, advocacy and research.

Major Podcast Directory Update

Now representing 27 states, our Government Podcasts directory has been updated with all the state and local government podcasts we could find. We also had help from librarian Amanda Stone.

Please look over the revised directory and send us anything, especially state and local gov’t podcasts that we missed.

Remember our criteria:

1. It must have audio or video produced either by a state agency, local government or an elected official.

2. It must be hosted on a government server (.orgs/.edu that clearly id themselves as a gov’t body ok).

3. The agency must put the CAST in podCAST by having an obvious way to subscribe to the podcast feed (RSS, iTunes, etc). Posting static audio files and expecting people to manually download files one by one won’t cut it.)

Thanks for checking this list for us!
