E-MAIL: The Library of Congress, asli@loc.gov. The Library of Congress intends to issue blanket purchase agreements (BPA's) for affordable high-quality photographic reproductions of the Library of Congress collections on a short turn-around basis. Several BPA's will be issued in accordance with FAR Part 13 Simplified Acquisition Procedures. Requirements include the following: off-site photographic reproduction from negatives of collection items including reproductions from copy negatives in black and white and color, and transparencies and slides in black and white and color. The films vary in size (standard to nonstandard sizes) and condition (poor, average, good, or excellent). Final product will be primarily black and white 8" x 10" RC glossy prints in various qualities (reproduction quality, exhibition quality, and special requirements). Other final products may be duplicate transparencies, color slides, and black and white negatives. Most of the requested reproductions are required by non-Library customers who use the reproductions for publication purposes; therefore, high quality reproductions are required in extremely short time frames. Interested parties are invited to submit appropriate documentation, literature, brochures, and references sufficient to determine capability to meet above requirements. Responses should be submitted no later than 15 days after synopsis appears in CBD.
