I. INTRODUCTION
This guide was compiled primarily for librarians who provide
reference assistance for U.S. Government Documents and contains
Internet sites which may assist in providing reference service for
library patrons who need government information.
A word about gophers; if I know the telnet address and password for
a gopher I have included login instructions. However, I recommend
you "point your gopher client" to a gopher instead of using telnet.
This not only facilitates login but is also easier to use. In
addition, Mosaic and WAIS software is becoming more available and
user friendly. I have included Mosaic (http) directions when I
know the address and will continue to adapt this guide to emerging
technologies. Your computing services can provide you with
information on your institution's technical capabilities.
There are a number of gophers which provide pointers to U.S.
Government Gophers. This is an good method to find federal
information on the Internet. An excellent collection of U.S.
Government Gophers can be found at peg.cwis.uci.edu. Calvin Boyer
of the University of California at Irvine maintains this list which
is the best collection of U.S. Government gophers I have seen. I
would recommend you add this site to your gopher bookmarks.
Thank you to Raymond Jansen from Tri-C West Library in Cleveland,
Ohio who put together the indexing format for this edition. I hope
the new format makes it easier to locate specific sites. Each
edition gets longer as electronic information continues to increase
and I appreciate all of the support and input from other Internet
surfers.
Original funding and research was conducted with the support of
ALA/USIA Fellows Program. As a Fellow to Dalhousie University,
Halifax, Nova Scotia and the University of New Brunswick, Canada I
conducted a number of workshops on U.S. government information. I
appreciate the support of the ALA/USIA Fellows Program which
provided the opportunity and time necessary to investigate
electronic government information.
