1. Tab 1 is a memorandum from the Assistant Director, Collec-
tion and Dissemination, requesting a realignment of the present
OCD T/0 to meet shifting work loads. Major changes proposed include:
a.. Strengthening of several library components where the
work load has increased beyond present staff capacity.
b. Reorganization of the CIA Library Publications Procure-
ment Section, involving transfer of 0 positions to the Section
to meet the heavy work load-and realignment of functions and
supervisory channels.
c. Creation of the International Conferences Branch in the
Liaison Division. The creation of this Branch has been approved
by the DD/I as a central point within CIA for coordinating
information on international trade fairs and international sci-
entific and technical conferences.
The above changes are to be made within the T/0 strength currently
authorized by elimination of positions listed in Tab 1A and do not
involve increase in total positions or ceiling.
2, Tab 2 is a memorandum from the O&M Service concurring in the
basic request of OCD for a revision of the existing T/O. The 0&M
Service, hvsr does not recommend the breakdown of the Publications
ProAprement-3ee4ton to the unit level, stating that such a breakdown

would make the Section too rigid and would prevent shifting of
incumbents between various positions in the Section to provide
additional training and experience.
3. Tab 3 is a memorandum from the Comptroller dated 10 February
1953 concurring in the proposed T/0 change and stating that the
change would entail an increase of salary payments in OCD of $10,775
during the Fiscal Year 1954, and that the proposed changes can be
financed within the presently approved budget for OCD,
4. The T/0 change proposal is considered well documented and the
classifications requested by OCD appear justified, with two exceptions:
(1) Secretary (Stenography) proposed as GS-7 and reduced to GS-6 by
this office; and (2) Library Assistant proposed as GS-5 and reduced
to GS-L.. OCD has concurred in these changes.
5. Based on considerations stated above, it is recommended that
the OCD proposal, as modified by the two grade changes cited in para-
graph four, be approved.
