Government Information

Search all government and military websites (.gov and .mil sites):

  • Google Government

  • FirstGov.gov - The U.S. Government's Official Web Portal
    FirstGov.gov, the official U.S. gateway to all government information, is the catalyst for a growing electronic government. On FirstGov.gov, you can search millions of web pages from federal and state governments, local and tribal governments, the District of Columbia and U.S. territories.

  • GPO Access
    GPO Access is a service of the U.S. Government Printing Office that provides free electronic access to a wealth of important information products produced by the Federal Government. The information provided on this site is the official, published version and the information retrieved from GPO Access can be used without restriction, unless specifically noted. This free service is funded by the Federal Depository Library Program and has grown out of Public Law 103-40, known as the Government Printing Office Electronic Information Enhancement Act of 1993.


Job Searching


Web Searching

  • Google
    To enter a query into Google, just type in a few descriptive words and hit the 'enter' key (or click on the Google Search button) for a list of relevant web pages. Since Google only returns web pages that contain all the words in your query, refining or narrowing your search is as simple as adding more words to the search terms you have already entered. Your new query will return a smaller subset of the pages Google found for your original "too-broad" query.

  • Yahoo
    Type a word or phrase into the search box and click "Search".
    On the Yahoo! Search results page, the links above the search box allow you to change or refine your web search. Click on one of the search view links to focus your results on images, breaking news, products, or Yahoo! Directory listings.
