Our mission

Free Government Information (FGI) is a place for initiating dialogue and building consensus among the various players (libraries, government agencies, non-profit organizations, researchers, journalists, etc.) who have a stake in the preservation of and perpetual free access to government information. FGI promotes free government information through collaboration, education, advocacy and research.

Indiana University’s National Government Statistics Collection

The Indiana University Bloomington Libraries are one of the leading academic research library systems in North America, providing strong collections, quality service and instructional programs, and leadership in the application of information technologies.

Indiana University has created an Archive-it collection of National Government Statistical Websites. This comprehensive collection contains web sites of statistical agencies of 150 countries from
Sub-Saharan Africa, Central Eurasia, East Asia, Latin America, the Middle East, Oceania, Russia and Eastern Europe, South Asia, and Southeast Asia. These web sites may include data, reports, statistical yearbooks, press releases, methodological guides, and other information of continuing interest to social scientists and historians.

Indiana University has also been using Archive-it to document their own website as well as Indiana state and local government websites since 2005. A portal to all their collections can be found here. Enjoy!
