This site displays a prototype of a “Web 2.0” version of the daily Federal Register. It is not an official legal edition of the Federal Register, and does not replace the official print version or the official electronic version on GPO’s govinfo.gov.
The documents posted on this site are XML renditions of published Federal Register documents. Each document posted on the site includes a link to the corresponding official PDF file on govinfo.gov. This prototype edition of the daily Federal Register on FederalRegister.gov will remain an unofficial informational resource until the Administrative Committee of the Federal Register (ACFR) issues a regulation granting it official legal status. For complete information about, and access to, our official publications and services, go to About the Federal Register on NARA's archives.gov.
The OFR/GPO partnership is committed to presenting accurate and reliable regulatory information on FederalRegister.gov with the objective of establishing the XML-based Federal Register as an ACFR-sanctioned publication in the future. While every effort has been made to ensure that the material on FederalRegister.gov is accurately displayed, consistent with the official SGML-based PDF version on govinfo.gov, those relying on it for legal research should verify their results against an official edition of the Federal Register. Until the ACFR grants it official status, the XML rendition of the daily Federal Register on FederalRegister.gov does not provide legal notice to the public or judicial notice to the courts.
The sixth volume of the Public Papers of President Barack Obama is now available. These volumes are produced right here at the Office of the Federal Register (OFR) by our staff in the Presidential unit. This particular volume is 888 pages and includes the text of his public speeches, news conferences, messages and statements, communications to Congress and Federal agencies, index to presidential documents published in the Federal Register during the time period, and a photographic portfolio.
The OFR Presidential unit indexes all the material by subject and name and lists them according to document category.
The entire volume, as well as others from Presidents Barack Obama, George W. Bush, William Clinton and George H.W. Bush, is available on the Government Publishing Office’s Web site at http://go.usa.gov/SeUz.
