GPO's Franklin

Welcome to Franklin, your online finding tool for the National Bibliography of U.S. Government Publications. It is named for Benjamin Franklin, who served as the official printer for several of the original 13 colonies and established the nation's first lending library.

Take the Government Printing Office's new online public access catalog for a test drive. I played around with it a little this morning and the word search works pretty well. I like the layout, but it will take some getting used to.

All in all, it has a good beat and I can dance to it. I'll give it an 85, Dick.
