GPO Creates First Online Guide to Members of Congress
The U.S. Government Printing Office (GPO) has just released a new one-stop, searchable site to all members of Congress. Search and find a picture or a biography of any Representative, Senator, delegate, or resident commissioner, now from one central site instead of separate ones.
We read about and hear their names in the media, but do we know where their hometowns are, or how many terms they have served? Now you can see who is from which town or district, and find out who has served 18 terms in Ohio! Search by name, district, hometown, number of terms, party affiliation, and more, and to their bios & photos. Also link out to GPO Access, for news reports, information on bills, records, laws, the Congressional Directory, the Code of Federal Regulations, or the Federal Register.
GPO is the centralized resource to organize and preserve published U.S. Government information in all forms, and is responsible for production and distribution of services for all three branches of the federal government. It also provides free access to government information through GPO Access, and through partnerships with over 1,250 libraries in the Federal Depository Library Program.
The Kelvin Smith Library is a FDLP member, and also serves as official mirror site for the United States 2000 Census ASCII text data files. KSL's Government Documents Department online and on the 2nd floor at KSL has a variety of information sources to help with your research at Case!
