The Government Printing Office produces, procures, and disseminates 
printed and electronic publications of the Congress, executive 
departments, and establishments of the Federal Government.
  
  
The Government Printing Office (GPO) opened for business on March 4, 
1861. GPO's duties are defined in title 44 of the U.S. Code. The Public 
Printer, who serves as the head of GPO, is appointed by the President 
and confirmed by the Senate.

Activities

Headquartered in Washington, DC, with a total employment of 
approximately 2,500, GPO is responsible for the production and 
distribution of information products and services for all three branches 
of the Federal

Government. GPO is the Federal Government's primary centralized resource 
for gathering, cataloging, producing, providing, authenticating, and 
preserving published information in all its forms. GPO's 1.5-million-
square-foot complex is the largest information processing, printing, and 
distribution facility in the world.
    While many of our Nation's most important products, such as the 
Congressional Record and Federal Register, are produced at GPO's main 
plant, the majority of the Government's printing needs are met through a 
long-standing partnership with America's printing industry. GPO procures 
between 600 and 1,000 print-related projects a day through private 
sector vendors across the country, competitively buying products and 
services from thousands of private sector companies in all 50 States. 
The contracts cover the entire spectrum of printing and publishing 
services and are available to fit almost any firm from the largest to 
the smallest.
    GPO disseminates Federal information products through a sales 
program, distribution network of more than 1,250 Federal libraries 
nationwide, and via GPO Access. More than 286,000 Federal Government 
document titles are available to the public at www.gpoaccess.gov.
    Printed copies of many documents, ranging from Supreme Court 
opinions to reports from the Bureau of Labor Statistics, may also be 
purchased as follows:
