About Government Information

Government Information Organizations

International, national, and local governments produce a vast amount of information and data. This page shows how to search BU Libraries Search (BULS) for government information and lists government document databases provided via the Libraries. It also lists some key online sources. Many of the Libraries' subject guides will also include sections of government information specific to the topic of the guide.
