 fundamentals of government information book cover

Check out one of our newest resources - Fundamentals of government Information, mining, finding, evaluating, and using government resources, 2nd edition, by Hartnett, Sevetson, and Forte, published by Neal Schuman, 2016. This is a newly revised, peer-reviewed update of a resource that established itself as an essential navigational tool for librarians and other users.  It is attuned to new sources and types of government information and how best to locate them.  Unmatched in its scope, this book covers key topics such as the history of government information and its dissemination, Congressional literature, census data, statistical resources, and information for numerous and prolific federal agencies.
