FEDS history can be traced back to 1977, when a forum was established for senior government officials to meet monthly and share information on reprographic processes and new technologies.
In 1983 this technical group moved under the umbrella of the Library of Congress. Later the group branched out, and was based under the General Services Administration (GSA). In 1990, the Federal Reprographics Association (FRA) was formed as an independent organization serving the same community of users. By 2004, the FRA changed its name to the Federal Electronic Document Systems Association, or FEDS, to better reflect industry changes in document technology and the knowledge-based specialists needed to create/prepare/disseminate/manage such documents for print and the Web. Today, FEDS attracts professionals from many areas: visual information, printing/publishing, information technology, web teams, printing management, education, procurement and production/prepress.
