GPO Access - This site provides access to government information products, the Government Printing Office online bookstore, and listings of business and contracting opportunities. Grants are generally considered a desirable form of financial assistance since they represent an outright award of funds. Since loans must be repaid, they are often viewed by applicants as less desirable than grants. However, with the reduction of federal funds available for grants and the increasing level of competition for such funds, loans are often the only form of assistance available. Coverage may be provided directly by the federal government or through private carriers and may or may not require the payment of premiums.
Access is by both category and keyword.
