To celebrate the 75th anniversary of the Federal Register Act, the Office of the Federal Register has launched Federal Register 2.0, its new beta site. The Federal Register is the official daily publication for rules, proposed rules, and notices of Federal agencies, as well as executive orders and other presidential documents.

This updated electronic version of the print publication is arranged like a daily web newspaper into six main sections: Money, Environment, World, Science and Technology, Business and Industry, and Health and Public Welfare. You can either search for documents or browse by agency or topic. The new site also allows readers to submit comments through social media like Twitter and Facebook. A brief video that explains the history of the Federal Register as well as the features of the new site is located on the main page.
