The
Code of Federal Regulations can be accessed in print or electronically
through
GPO Access, Lexis or Westlaw. Unfortunately, the print version and GPO
Access are only updated annually. Lexis and Westlaw are updated daily, but they
are usually one week to ten days behind.
For the most current version of the Code of Federal Regulations, you can
go to
e-CFR. It is updated daily and usually only one or two days behind. The
"beta test" site is maintained by the
National Archives and Records Administration's (NARA)
Office of the Federal Register (OFR) and the
Government Printing Office (GPO). While e-CFR is not the official legal
version of the CFR, it can give you a heads up to recent changes.
Note: Since searching is not sophisticated, it's best to use this site
when you have a citation. For keyword searching, it's better to go to Lexis or
Westlaw.
