Summary:

"It will find a welcome place on the ready-reference shelf of any librarian or researcher who uses government information on a regular basis". -- ARBA

For the discriminating researcher and scholar, and for the librarian who assists them, this is the resource of choice. Using Government Information Sources covers the many recent changes in accessing and using this material, including information sources available on the Internet and online databases, electronic bulletin boards, CD-ROM products and diskettes, and telephone hotline numbers. Four chapters have been added, covering astronomy and space, state and local government statistics, transportation statistics, and judicial reports.
