520 "Government data and resources are uniquely useful to
researchers and other library users. But without a roadmap,
sifting through the sheer quantity of information to find
the right answers is foolhardy. The first edition of this
text is well established as an essential navigational tool
for both LIS students and professionals; now this newly
revised, peer-reviewed update is even more attuned to new
sources and types of government information and how best
to locate them. Unmatched in its scope, this book covers
such key topics as the history of government information,
from its colorful beginnings to the era of Wikileaks,
Edward Snowden, and data breaches; how to think like a
government documents librarian in order to find
information efficiently, plus other research tips; all
types of law resources and information, including public
laws and the U.S. Code, Case Law and the judicial branch,
and regulations; Congressional literature, from bills and
committee hearings to the U.S. Congressional Serial Set;
patents, trademarks, and intellectual property; census
data, educational information, and other statistical
resources; health information, with an in-depth look at
the Patient Protection and Affordable Care Act and the
trend toward and impact of online medical records; and
science, environmental, and energy resources from agencies
like the Environmental Protection Agency and the
Department of Energy. Exercises throughout the text
support instruction, while the approachable and well-
organized style make it ideal for day-to-day reference
use"--|cPublisher's website.
