The CGP on GitHub repository offers monthly files of new and changed bibliographic records of the Catalog of U.S. Government Publications (CGP) for downloading, free of charge.

GPO’s Library Technical Services (LTS) manages and develops five repositories:

In December 2022, LTS undertook a thorough review of the repositories and the collections and completed a series of actions for a refresh:

  • Linked each repository to the others to facilitate navigation of our GitHub resources.
  • Updated the descriptions of the repositories and collections.
  • Re-processed the records for each collection of the CGP on GitHub repository except for the CGP Records with Updated PURLs and National Institute of Standards and Technology (NIST) collections.
  • Added record display pages to most CGP on GitHub collections to provide direct access to the publications with online versions.
