eBooks From The Federal Government

THE FEDERAL GOVERNMENT HAS E-BOOKS TOO!

The U.S. Government Printing Office (GPO) is now making eBooks available in the Catalog of U.S. Government Publications (CGP). These titles are joining the growing number of online resources that have been a vital part of the Federal Depository Library Program (FDLP) for over 20 years.

Users can download GPO-provided files of eBooks free of charge, for use on various eBook reading devices.  eBook titles are available in EPUB and MOBI formats, as well as PDF. For technical assistance the Federal Depository Library Program also offers an FAQ page. 

PDF and HTML versions of many U.S. government publications also are linked from the Atlanta-Fulton Public Library System catalog. And for more information about The Atlanta-Fulton Public Library System's role as a U.S. Federal Depository Library and the Ivan Allen Reference Department, visit our website.

There is an eBook search box on the GPO’s eBooks page.
