Publishing for the Public
Division of the Federal Register staff members support production of government publications in this 1947 photograph. In 1935, Congress passed the Federal Register Act, creating a partnership between the National Archives and the Government Printing Office to print an official daily publication of presidential documents, executive agency rules and public notices. Today, the Office of the Federal Register (OFR) publishes several public documents including the Federal Register, Code of Federal Regulations, Compilation of Presidential Documents and the Public Papers of the Presidents, many of which are available online. The OFR also administers the Electoral College and Constitutional Amendment process.

When a bill is signed into law by the president, it is sent to the OFR to be assigned a law number and paginated for the U.S. Statutes at Large. After that, a List of Public Laws is created and posted online, then published in the Federal Register.
