Consumer Services Publications from the state of Nevada

The U.S. Government Manual is updated!

It's available online here. There's also a great informative post discussing what the Manual IS that was put together by the Federal Register--take a look at that here.

"The United States Government Manual is the official handbook of the Federal Government. (It is)updated to provide comprehensive and authoritative descriptions of the programs and activities of the legislative, judicial, and executive branches. The Government Manual also includes information about quasi-official agencies, international organizations with U.S. membership, and Federal boards, commissions, and committees."
