Content Sample from the Introduction:

The library home page serves as a gateway to many valuable links to state,
federal, and international government sources. (Click on Government
Information.) There you will find, among others, the websites for all
federal agencies, boards, and commissions, as well as all those for
congressional, judicial, and legislative offices.

A number of government sites provide useful information for research. The
following are recommended.

The Department of Labors Office of Disability Policy provides statistics
and programs on employment for those with disabilities
Census.gov reports the information gathered every ten years on the
countrys population: everything from racial characteristics to housing
costs to miles traveled to work. It also gives historical data for
comparisons.

The Bureau of Labor Statistics site provides national, regional, and
state-specific information, and gives access to employment data of all
kinds: consumer price index, productivity, and the cost of doing business,
for example.

The National Center for Education Statistics collates and compares
educational statistics from around the county.
