Publications Bulletin UNITED STATES ARMY PUBLISHING AGENCY, ALEXANDRIA, VA 22331-0302 99-1 USAPA Website Address Changes The URL (uniform resource locator) of our website has changed to www.usapa.army.mil. Be sure to update your bookmarks. For those of you who use the IP (Internet protocol) address to reach us, it is 128.190.158.115. Also, the address for e-mail submission of publications orders or subscription transactions has changed to usapa@pubs.army.mil. This address is for changes and requisitions submitted by e-mail only (formerly sent to usapa@pubs.hoffman.army.mil). This does not apply to customers using the website to order or make subscription changes. We apologize for any confusion this change may have caused. On December 4th, we physically Winter 1999 moved our web servers to U.S. Total Army Personnel Command’s (PERSCOM’s) computer room for a two-fold purpose: (1) to take advantage of greater bandwidth available on a communications line, and (2) to synchronize with PERSCOM’s firewall implementation. In our preparation for the move, we had planned to use an alias in the Domain Name Service tables so that the required changes in the server names and IP addresses would be transparent to those who link to us. However, on the day of the move this became impossible due to circumstances beyond our control. We are sorry that the change was not transparent as we had planned. Our website actually consists of three servers. For those who need the details on each server, they are provided below: Server 1: Hosts the main page and our publications ordering modules. One can link to The Publications Bulletin Goes Electronic We will publish one more paper version of our Publications Bulletin (the Spring 1999 issue). Beginning with the Summer 1999 (1 July 1999) issue, the Publications Bulletin will only be available on our Army Electronic Library CD-ROM and on our Internet home page (http://www.usapa.army.mil). Our Internet home page will have both HTML and PDF formats. It is easy to find, just click the icon on the sidebar that says “USAPA Publications Bulletins.” If you cannot get a copy of the Bulletin from either of these sources, please ask your higher headquarters to contact us. We will print a very limited number (on demand) and mail them out. In This Issue...

EMIL S. NAZZARO Director covers Army-wide forms and Army-wide administrative publications that are on our quarterly Army Electronic Library (AEL) compact disk-read only memory (CD-ROM) and those publications and forms to be added in the future. For your convenience, we are including a copy of the HQDA Letter that covers the Less Paper Policy following this article. Our AEL CD-ROM now comes in three disks: The first one is the DA Pam 25-30 (Consolidated Index of Army Publications and Blank Forms). The mailer has two other disks—one for electronic publications and another for electronic forms. We have heard your requests for Portable Document Format (PDF). You will be happy to hear that U.S. Army Publishing Agency (USAPA) has 1,723 forms (in PerFORM PRO and FormFlow) on the January 1999 CD-ROM; 1,600 of them are in PDF. We have some forms in other software such as JetForm Filler for the Reserve Component Automation System (RCAS). Let’s look at some January CD-ROM publication figures. The big numbers are Army Regulations (ARs) (671); DA Pamphlets (DA Pams)(121); and DA General Orders (DAGOs)(83). GOs? Yes, GOs are official administrative publications. The Manual for Courts Martial (MCM) counts as only Publications Bulletin ❄ Winter 1999 one publication, but it is a very important one. This Less Paper Policy (covered by HQDA Letter 25-98-1) is the first HQDA Letter to go on our CD-ROM, and we are now including DA Memorandums (DA Memos). Letters and Memos are not common, but we want you to know that they will now be part of the AEL. The Army administrative publications total for the January 1999 CD-ROM is 884. In case you have some spare reading time, our CD-ROM also gives you an excerpt of the Joint Electronic Library, including the Department of Defense (DOD) Dictionary and the Joint Doctrine Encyclopedia; those are in PDF. If you prefer to go to the World Wide Web (WWW) for information, please visit us at our USAPA home page. We have made a lot of improvements, particularly with browsable publications. If you find a publication or a form on the AEL CD-ROM, you will also find it on the USAPA home page at http:// www.usapa.army.mil. In between quarterly CDROMs, USAPA places newly converted electronic publications and forms on this site. We are trying to get current publications to you faster and make them easier to use. You will not find any classified, sensitive, or accountable forms on the WWW or on our CDROM. And, you will not see any classified or sensitive (such as distribution restricted or For Official Use Only) publications there either. Publications Bulletin ❄ Winter 1999 How did it all happen? Yes, people were talking about less paper, and they were working on electronic initiatives. Then, in November 1997, Defense Secretary Cohen released his Defense Reform Initiative. It covered many subjects including DOD-wide publications. This report said that DOD (by 1 July 1998) would discontinue volume printing of DOD-wide regulations and instructions and make them available through the Internet or CD-ROM. Secretary Cohen’s initiative spoke of best business practices and said, “The Revolution in the Business Affairs of the Department of Defense includes adopting and adapting the best business practices of the private sector to the business of defense.” The goals and vision were clear. We knew our Army-wide publications system was far more complex and different from the DOD publications system. From the very beginning, we referred to our proposal as “Less Paper” and not “Paperless.” A major goal of our initiatives is to make the system more efficient and to prepare the Army for the demands and environment of the next century. We are all dealing with unpredictable problems, detours, and potential accidents. However, if we work together, we will reach our goals.

The Less Paper Policy prescribed in this Publications Bulletin ❄ Winter 1999 5 SAAA-PP SUBJECT: Less Paper Policy for Departmental Forms and Administrative Publications numbered HQDA letter applies to only the departmental forms and administrative publications on the Army Electronic Library (AEL); the AEL is a compact disk-read only memory (CD-ROM) that is issued quarterly. This CD-ROM is Unclassified and also not Sensitive. In between quarterly CD-ROMs, USAPA places newly converted electronic publications and forms on the agency worldwide web (WWW) home page at http://www.usapa.army.mil. Items that have not been converted to electronic format or cannot be converted, such as specialty construction forms, will not be affected. a. Forms. After 1 December 1998, USAPA will not procure (buy) a paper medium for new and revised forms that are on the AEL CD-ROM or for resupply (reprint) of existing forms on that CD-ROM. USAPA will supply paper stock of these forms until they are revised or exhausted or 1 June 2000. After this date, USAPA will no longer stock or issue paper forms that are governed by this policy. If a form under this policy has no reasonable demand for any 6-month period, USAPA will not hold that stock. Critical and mobilization forms are exempt for a period that has not yet been determined. (See para 7 for exceptions.) b. Publications. The Less Paper Policy for departmental administrative publications varies by distribution level as explained below. (1) Publications, distribution levels C, D, and E. After 1 December 1998, USAPA will not procure (buy) a paper medium for new, changed, and revised publications that are on the AEL CD-ROM or for resupply (reprint) of those existing publications that are on that CD-ROM. USAPA will supply paper stock of these publications until changed, revised, or exhausted or 1 June 2000. After this date, USAPA will no longer stock or issue paper publications that are governed by this policy. If a publication covered by this policy has no reasonable demand for any 6-month period, USAPA will not hold that stock. Mobilization publications are exempt for a period that has not yet been determined. (See para 7 for exceptions.) (2) Publications, distribution levels A and B. After 1 July 1999, USAPA will not procure (buy) a paper medium for new, changed, and revised publications that are on the AEL CD-ROM or for resupply (reprint) of those existing publications on that CD-ROM. USAPA will supply paper stock of these publications until changed, revised, or exhausted or 1 January 2001. After this date, USAPA will no longer stock or issue paper publications that are governed by this policy. If a publication covered by this policy has no reasonable demand for any 6-month period, USAPA will not hold that stock. Mobilization publications are exempt for a period that has not yet been 6 Publications Bulletin ❄ Winter 1999 determined. (See para 7 for exceptions.) (3) Changes to publications. (a) When procurement of a paper medium for a publication ceases (see b above), USAPA will no longer procure paper changes to that publication. DA Pam 25-40, particularly appendix B, gives detailed procedures for submitting electronic files for changes. As noted in this pamphlet, proponents and preparers will contact USAPA for guidance. (b) Because the electronic medium is becoming the usual method of publishing, the concept of issuing changes to departmental administrative publications is in transition. During this transition, the system will have some publications that are only electronic, some that are only paper, and still others that are both. After transition, the Army may issue new publishing terms that will alter the definition of a change but allow for the differences in staffing requirements under current publishing policy (AR 25-30) for changes and revisions. (4) Microfiche. The U.S. Army has published DA Pam 25-30 (Consolidated Index of Army Publications and Blank Forms) on both the quarterly AEL CD-ROM and also in microfiche. USAPA continued the current cycle through Change 3 to DA Pam 25-30 but did not publish the 1 October 1998 revision in microfiche. Beginning 1 October 1998, DA Pam 25-30 will be available only in electronic media. 7. Exceptions to policy. The AASA will accept and evaluate requests for exceptions to policy (with written justification) from users and proponents. Requesters must send and coordinate these requests through command channels and MACOMs. Because proponents manage their items and are involved often in funding, as clarified below, requests for exceptions must include coordination with the publication’s proponent. A proponent organization that is requesting an exception will include both user and proponent comments. If the proponent is an HQDA agency, the requester may ask that the Office of the AASA coordinate with the proponent. a. The proponent is responsible for funding the cost of all departmental printing including exceptions granted under this Less Paper Policy except as follows: (1) USAPA has the responsibility to fund replenishment (reprints) for Army-wide (departmental) administrative forms, Budget Activity Group (BAG) 43, including exceptions granted under this Less Paper Policy. Forms funded in other budget programs (and those exceptions) are a proponent responsibility. (2) HQDA proponent agencies that are supported by the Information Management Support Center (IMCEN) will process their publishing requests through IMCEN (ATTN: JDIM-RM), 6602 Army Pentagon, Washington, DC 20310-6602. For Publications Bulletin ❄ Winter 1999 7 SAAA-PP SUBJECT: Less Paper Policy for Departmental Forms and Administrative Publications those agencies that IMCEN supports, JDIM-RM has the responsibility to fund publications and new and revised forms including exceptions granted under this Less Paper Policy. Examples of those that pay for their own publications and forms are The Surgeon General; Chief, National Guard Bureau; and Chief, Army Reserve. b. Requests for exceptions must include written justification. Send requests through command channels to the Office of the Administrative Assistant to the Secretary of the Army (ATTN: SAAA-PP), 105 Army Pentagon, Washington, DC 203100105. 8. Receiving the AEL CD-ROM. To receive the AEL CD-ROM, HQDA agency personnel should contact the Information Management Support Center, 6602 Army Pentagon, Washington, DC 20310-6602. Customers in the field should contact a local publications control officer or publications account manager. Because the CD-ROM is published quarterly, it is not reprinted or stocked. If an organization is not receiving the AEL CD-ROM through its quarterly initial distribution (ID), the local publications personnel must update the organization’s publications subscriptions (DA Form 12series). a. The USAPA website provides instructions for ordering and using the subscription system. Adding the AEL CD-ROM or making a subscription change through the WWW requires entering the Initial Distribution Number (IDN) of the AEL CD-ROM (04 0803). The AEL CD-ROM is listed in DA Pam 25-30 as EM 0001. b. USAPA customers, particularly those without access to the WWW, may also use the STARPUBS DDN Interface System (SDIS) software (available in any copy of the AEL CD-ROM) to request initial distribution of the CD-ROM. Send these e-mail requests to: USAPA@pubs.army.mil.

If you have a special interest that you would like to see addressed, please let us know. Processing Cases with Less Hassle—Editor’s Advice to Proponents This article will give you a brief overview of the publishing process. We encourage you, however, to contact us at anytime for answers to your publishing and printing questions. When you submit your publication to the U.S. Army Publishing Agency (USAPA), you probably assume that your publication will be published in a very short amount of time. The truth of the matter is that another process is just beginning – a process that can be shortened somewhat if your manuscript comes to us prepared according to several requirements. To begin with, you should get a copy of AR 2530, The Army Integrated Publishing and Printing Program, and DA Pam 25-40, Administrative Publications: Action Officers Guide, and read the information provided on how to prepare and publish your publication. The very next and most important step is to call USAPA and speak with an editor to make sure that you understand the process and have all the necessary components to get your publication published. Because of rapidly changing technology, this step is really a must so that you can get the latest information on file preparation. Poor file preparation is a definite factor in the amount of time it takes for your publication to be processed and published. When your publication is just about ready, it’s a good idea to go back to DA Pam 25-40 and go over the checklist in Appendix B. Hint: This is the same checklist that the editor, who is assigned your case, will use to determine if your case meets the criteria for acceptance or rejection. Once you believe you have a complete publication, your next stop is the Publications Control Officer (PCO). Do not bypass the PCO. Publications Bulletin ❄ Winter 1999 All cases will be returned if the PCO has not approved your publication and signed off on the back of the DA Form 260 (Request for Printing of Publication). In addition, the Forms Management Officer’s signature is required on all DD Forms 67 (Form Processing Action Request) for all new or revised forms accompanying your manuscript. Please make sure that you have complete coordination on your DA Form 260. That means following the guidance provided in DA PAM 25-40, appendix B, paragraph B-8; and include on the DA Form 260, part II (Concurrences) the (1) dates, (2) names, and (3) office symbols of those who responded to your coordination. After the PCO has signed off on your DA Form 260, you are ready to submit your publication to USAPA. When your publication arrives at USAPA, it is sent to our Indexing Office where it is logged in and put into our Case Management System. Then it is moved to the Publications Management Branch. Your publication will then be assigned to the next available editor and forms analyst. The editor will review your manuscript for acceptance and then edit your manuscript. At the same time, a forms analyst will review your publication for forms implications and design forms if needed. They will work together to ensure that you have a quality publication. If any problems or questions arise during this phase, you will be contacted. Your timely response to any questions or requirements is important to keeping the case moving. Next, your publication will go to Office of The Judge Advocate General (OTJAG) for a legal review. (The review by OTJAG during coordination was a functional review.) Once OTJAG has approved your publication with “no legal objections,” it is returned to the Publications Management Branch. It is now ready for funding and Administrative Assistant to the Secretary of the Army (AASA) approval. While your publication is being reviewed by OTJAG and AASA, your editor is tagging and 11 composing your publication to prepare the proofs for you to review. Once your publication is funded and approved by AASA and you have approved your proofs, your publication is forwarded to our Operations Branch, Production Management Division, or our Electronic Publishing Branch, Publishing Division, where it will be published in hard copy or converted to electronic format. The USAPA point of contact for this article is Ms. Kim Bradley at DSN 328-0591 or commercial (703) 428-0591. Update on New Evaluation Forms Revised DA Forms 7222-1 (Senior System Civilian Evaluation Report Support Form) and 7223-1 (Base System Civilian Performance Counseling Checklist/Record), dated August 1998, have been added to the USAPA Electronic Forms Library. A change to the prescribing publication, AR 690-400, Total Army Evaluation System, Chapter 4302, has also recently been published. The proponent agency (Assistant Secretary of the Army (Manpower and Reserve Affairs)) has not released for distribution (either electronically or paper copy) the revised DA Forms 7222 (Senior System Civilian Evaluation Report) and 7223 (Base System Civilian Evaluation Report), dated August 1998. When the release is made, we will update our systems and notify our customers through this Publications Bulletin and our Web Site.

Help Us Update DA Pamphlet 25-30 Control Officers (PCOs) and Forms Management Officers (FMOs) in four appendixes. The pamphlet is included on EM 0001, The Army Electronic Library. PCOs and FMOs should review their information with each quarterly revision and provide USAPA with updates or changes. The information needs to be provided in the same format as in the appendixes. We sometimes receive a name and Social Security Number (SSN) only. We do not need the SSN and cannot call for additional information without a telephone number. Please note that when the PCO and FMO are the same person, the listing will be in the appendix for the PCO only.
