Diane,

You'll be happy to know that the Government Printing Office has developed an
on-line system of retrieving governmental information through "GPO Access".
Available will be the Federal Register, the Congressional Record, the
Congressional Record Index (includin gthe History of Bills), Congressional
Bills, Public Laws, U.S. Code and GAO Reports.

Since our University is a Government Repository, our Library is currently
developing a method to get the GPO Access databases up and running for public
use.  If you are not a Government Repository, you may pay a subscription fee
for GPO Access.
