Electronic publications from the U.S. Government Printing Office are now available, fully cataloged and linked, in Josiah: 42,000 electronic books, 8,000 serials, and over 1,000 databases linking an additional 225,000 electronic publications. This is a growing collection, currently adding about 1,500 titles per month.
Access is available via author, title, subject, series number, etc., and, yes, the traditional Superintendent of Documents Number search works marvelously well.

Long known as the world’s largest publisher, the U.S. G.P.O. is quickly becoming one of the foremost electronic publishers as well. To link this electronic content from our catalog, Brown partnered with Marcive, Inc. to acquire bibliographic and authority records for all U.S. government e-publications.
