(e) Failure of the Contractor and the Contracting Officer to agree that technical direction is within the scope of the contract shall be subject to the terms of the “Disputes” clause of this contract.

(End of Clause)

H.2 LC52.203-1 CONTRACTOR PUBLICITY (OCT 2013)

The Contractor, or any entity or representative acting on behalf of the Contractor, may not refer to the equipment or services furnished pursuant to the provisions of this contract in any news release or commercial advertising, or in connection with any news release or commercial advertising, without first obtaining explicit written consent to do so from the Contracting Officer. Should any reference to such equipment or services appear in any news release or commercial advertising issued by or on behalf of the Contractor without the required consent, the Government will consider institution of all remedies available under applicable law.

H.3 LC52.204-2 CONDUCT ON LIBRARY PREMISES (JUL 2021)

1. Access to Library buildings and grounds is governed by 36 C.F.R. part 702 - Conduct on Library Premises. Contractor staff must comply with these requirements and restrictions and related Library of Congress Regulations and Directives.

2. The Library is committed to preventing and addressing all forms of discriminatory harassment and to ensuring that Equal Employment Opportunity (EEO) principles are fundamental to Library culture. Everyone — employees, interns, volunteers, contractors, researchers, and visitors — is expected to help make the Library a respectful environment free from offensive behavior.

a. Library of Congress employees, contractors, interns, volunteers, researchers, patrons, and other visitors have a right to Library facilities that are free from discrimination based on their race, color, national origin, religion, sex, sexual orientation, gender identity, age (40 and over), disability, genetic information, union affiliation, political affiliation, or marital status.

b. The Library does not tolerate discrimination – including sexual harassment, other forms of harassment, or a hostile work environment – based on these factors. The Library does not tolerate retaliation against anyone who engages in any form of protected EEO activity.

c. Contractor (including subcontractor) staff alleged to have engaged in discrimination or retaliation in the performance of this contract may be prohibited from entering Library facilities to perform work under their contracts.

Contractors are required to promptly respond to all Library inquiries into allegations of discrimination, and must, in good faith, cooperate with Library investigations. Good faith cooperation includes, but is not limited to, making contractor staff available for:

1. Formal and informal interviews by Library agents investigating allegations of discrimination;

2. Reviewing and signing appropriate affidavits or declarations summarizing statements provided by such contractor staff during the course of an investigation;

3. Producing documents requested by the Library agents conducting the investigation; and

4. Preparing for and providing testimony in depositions or in administrative hearings.

(End of Clause)

H.4 LC52.204-4 CONTRACTOR EMPLOYEE FITNESS (SEP 2024)

“Contractor employee fitness” means fitness based on character and conduct for work for or on behalf of the Government as a contractor employee.

Work under this contract is unclassified. However, the Library of Congress shall conduct background investigations of contractor personnel who will have 1) regular, ongoing, unescorted access to the Library’s buildings, grounds, or collections, 2) access to Library information technology systems, and/or 3) access to Library information not available to the public, including information determined to be Controlled Unclassified Information (CUI), to ensure they meet basic standards of honesty and trustworthiness pursuant to Library regulations. The Library does not determine the fitness of employees to work for the contractor firm that hires them. The Library’s interest is in determining whether contractor personnel should be granted greater access than the general public to Library facilities, Library information technology systems, and/or non-public Library information.

(1) Any access to non-public Library facilities, Library information technology systems, and/or non-public Library information will require a contractor employee fitness determination. All initial, existing, and reciprocal contractor employee fitness determinations will be subject to continuous vetting. Continuous vetting will vary based on position risk level. An example of continuous vetting is outlined in Trusted Workforce 2.0 (https://www.performance.gov/trusted-workforce/ and https://www.dcsa.mil/Personnel-Security/Continuous- Vetting/).

(2) A favorable contractor employee fitness determination requires completion and successful adjudication of a security application request (release forms, fingerprints, and a full background investigation). To facilitate the fitness determination, the prospective contractor employee shall submit to the Library complete and accurate information as identified on the National Background Investigation Services (NBIS)’s eAPP (https://eapp.nbis.mil) or other system as provided by the Personnel Security Division (PSD). Contractors should anticipate a minimum of two weeks for the process, provided all requested information is timely, accurate and complete and that no adverse information is received. A background investigation generally will require that the candidate has cumulatively resided in the United States for at least three of the past five years. This requirement is subject to certain exceptions assessed on a case-by-case basis by PSD in accordance with established federal personnel vetting standards.

(3) After the contractor employee fitness determination, each contractor employee with a favorably adjudicated background investigation shall be enrolled in and subject to the Library’s continuous vetting process. Enrollment in the Library’s continuous vetting process also requires enrollment in the Federal Bureau of Investigation (FBI) Record of Arrest and Prosecution Background (“Rap Back”) program, which provides the Library with notification of any criminal activity by the enrollee. Upon enrollment in Rap Back, the Library shall provide each enrollee with a notification of their rights with respect to the collection and use of their fingerprints and to the accuracy of the information obtained from Rap Back, as well as a copy of the FBI Privacy Act Statement that describes how FBI may use their fingerprint images.

(4) The fact that the Library may conduct background investigations and continuous vetting on assigned contractor personnel does not relieve the contractor of the responsibility to provide qualified, reliable personnel of sound character and conduct. This includes providing contractor personnel who can maintain compliance with the Library’s requirement of a drug-free workplace and federal laws regarding controlled substances (see the Controlled Substances Act, 21 U.S.C.

§ 801 et seq. for the definition of controlled substances). In the event that drug testing is required for a contractor employee to obtain a favorable fitness determination, the contractor will be responsible for bearing the costs of such testing, conducting the testing in a manner consistent with federal vetting standards, which are based on the testing protocols published by the Substance Abuse and Mental Health Services Administration (SAMHSA), and providing the results to the Library.

(5) The Library may require removal of contractor staff from Library facilities and revocation of access to Library information technology systems and non-public Library information if investigative results raise concerns regarding a contractor employee’s fitness or the contractor employee is non-compliant with the Library’s instructions or requests for information during the vetting process. In such cases, the Contracting Officer (CO) or Contracting Officer Representative (COR) will notify the contractor of the unfit determination and need for the contractor employee to return all government equipment such as badges, keys and network tokens if issued. Contractor management staff may be required to escort the contractor employee from Library premises.

(6) The contractor will ensure the COR and CO are notified of all changes to those contractor personnel performing work on this contract that require non-public access.

(End of Clause)

H.5 LC52.237-2 CONDUCT OF WORK (MAY 2015)

The personnel employed by the Contractor shall be capable employees qualified in this type of work. The Contractor shall be responsible for all damage to Library property by the activities of his employees resulting from these operations.

The Contracting Officer may require removal from work on this contract any employee(s) that may be deemed incompetent, careless, insubordinate, unsuitable, or otherwise objectionable, or whose continued employment is deemed contrary to the public interest or inconsistent with the best interest of or the security of the Library.
