    <font face="Arial"><p></font><font face="Arial" size="2">The Federal Bulletin Board (FBB)
    is a free electronic bulletin board service of the Superintendent of Documents, U.S.
    Government Printing Office (GPO). All file library documents can be downloaded free of
    charge.</font></p>
    <p><font face="Arial" size="2">The FBB enables Federal agencies to provide to the public
    self-service access to Federal information in electronic form. The FBB runs in Web, FTP,
    and Telnet mode at Internet address <strong>fedbbs.access.gpo.gov</strong>. The FBB is a
    component of the <em>GPO Access</em> service and provides utility and support files for
    use with <em>GPO Access</em> online, searchable databases.</font></p>
    <p><font face="Arial" size="2">Federal agencies use the FBB as a means to distribute
    electronic files in various file formats to the public.
    Users can access information from the White House and Executive Branch agencies (includes
    independent agencies) such as the Department of State and Treasury, the Merit Systems
    Protection Board, and the Federal Labor Relations Authority. Supreme Court opinions and
    files are also available from the 1992 Term forward. The Federal Depository Library
    Program has information available on the FBB as well.</font><font face="Arial"></p>
