Local Government/Municipal

GPO Access is a service of the U.S. Government Printing Office that provides free electronic access to a wealth of information products
produced by the Federal Government. This re-launch was accomplished as a result of feedback from users, through surveys, usability
studies, focus groups, etc..

FirstGov is the world wide web information portal for the United States Federal Government, the place to find any government information on
the Internet, from business and economy to money and benefits to science and technology. Government information can be accessed in
several different ways: by keyword search, by the headings in the Topics area of the website, or by following the informational links in the
Featured Subjects or the Federal and State Government areas of the website.
This site gives information on the recent census (like information release dates) can be found on this site in addition to a vast amount of statistical data. The impact of this data politically, socially, and economically makes this
an excellent site to bookmark for reference.
This web page which is part of the University of North Texas Libraries' Government Connection site provides a comprehensive set of links to
transportation law resources, an appropriate choice for National Transportation Week.
It's that time of year again! The IRS has an excellent web site, one which has been around for a few years now, and is designed to put all
the information you never wanted to know about filing your taxes at a click of the mouse. Front page and center is an article about filing an
extension.
Government Sites
Another good financial site...good for forecasts, consumer advice, and banking information. Find out what Alan Greenspan is saying these
days.

Massachusetts Resources
This web portal from the City Solicitors and Town Counsel Association provides access to the status of charter and by-law submissions to the Attorney General's Municipal Law Unit. The Attorney General is required by statute to review all Home Rule charters, charter revisions, and charter amendments proposed to the voters of all Massachusetts cities and towns, as well as the by-laws adopted by Massachusetts towns. The statutes governing this review prescribe the time within which the Attorney General's endorsement must be made.
Massachusetts State Government
We thought it was time to acknowledge the new state domain and web site with its easier-to-remember address and easier-to-navigate
information. If you haven't yet visited, we highly recommend it. Highlights include: site news, new site categories, a help page (fill out the
site survey while there), and a site search (try searching for "lawyers").
