The US Govt Printing Office has a wealth of information, much of it free. For 2014 they’ve put together a free packet that has a potpourri of items at least some of which will probably be of interest to most people. You can see what’s included here or download the pdf’s directly.
Also don’t forget to check out their home page and maybe get a copy of their 2014 catalog here.

I still love snail mail. Following that trail of slime to my door, the air heavy with expectation of what I might find. Sure, sometimes it’s just a dead snail but sometimes, it’s something really exciting. [does happy dance]
For things like the catalog, I like to get a hard copy so I can thumb through it and dog ear pages. Ereaders are fine but there are just some things that they aren’t suited for. I’ve adapted to reading most stuff online but for things where I need to flip back and forth for reference, there’s no substitute for the noble codex.
