LibGuides: SCWK 650 (All Classes): Government Documents & Statistical Information

Government & Statistical Information

All levels of government - international, federal, state, and local - produce a large range of documents, policy and research reports, and statistics.

In fact, the federal government is the largest collector of statistics in the country.

Many if not most government documents are now distributed on the Internet.

Government Documents at FLITE

I suggest starting at http://usa.gov.

USA.gov
As the U.S. government's official web portal, USA.gov facilitates public access to U.S. government information and services on the web.

For more information and assistance, you may want to check out the links on FLITE's government documents webpage or make an appointment to talk with FLITE's government documents librarian.
