Government Information

Government Information, part of Rare and Distinctive Collections, is a regional library of the Federal Depository Library Program as well as a Preservation Steward for U.S. Congressional publications (a partnership with GPO). We also serve as a depository of Colorado, United Nations and European Union information. 

We’re here to help you find information from any level of government. Most government publications materials can be checked out (information about visiting and using our collections). We offer research guides, tours and in-person and virtual instruction. For more information or general inquiries, please contact us at rad@colorado.edu.
