TO: Printing and Publishing Officials of the Federal Government

SUBJECT: Announcing the Start of the GPO On-Line Paper Catalogue

The U.S. Government Printing Office is pleased to announce the official launch of the GPO On-Line Paper Catalogue. This catalogue contains information and prices for Blank Paper, Envelopes, Inks, and Services. Our customers can easily “Search” the catalogue items by GPO Property Number, stock category/type, etc. Pricing and expected lead time will be updated every month so customers can plan budgets, purchasing, and work plans accordingly. In addition to the items GPO inventories in our warehouse facility, the catalogue also contains various charts and tables to assist customers in determining what types and quantities of alternate stock they may need.

To access the catalogue go to the GPOAccess website, www.gpo.gov/papercontrol and follow the link to the Paper Catalogue at the bottom of the description of our “Paper Control” Section. This page also features a “Contacts” list of names and phone numbers of personnel in GPO’s Paper Control Section who will be glad to assist you.

Sincerely,

JIM BRADLEY
Managing Director, Customer Services
