Did you know there are thousands of computerized databases of government information, some of them free? If you didn’t, it’s not surprising; the government spends billions on maintaining the databases, and practically nothing on advertising them. The Federal Database Finder lists 4200 of these information sources and tells you how to use them (you don’t need to have a computer yourself). Matthew Lesko, who wrote Information U.S.A. , is also responsible for this book, which shares his philosophy that government information should be accessible to all — that is, all who can afford The Federal Database Finder’s steep price.
