I started working with government information in 1986 at the Carnegie Library of Pittsburgh in Pittsburgh, Pa back when I was a Library Science graduate student. Nowadays, I am a government documents librarian at the University of Utah Marriott Library. 

The government publications that have given me the most pleasure over the years are unquestionably the various U.S. Geological Survey Topographic Quadrangle Map series'.  I also have a soft spot for "Thomas" which is a wonderful online tool that helps citizens keep track of what our U.S. representatives and senators are up to in Washington D.C.("In the spirit of Thomas Jefferson, legislative information from the Library of Congress" http://thomas.loc.gov/)

Brigham Young University - Howard W Hunter Law Library (Provo)

I graduated from Brigham Young University in 1972 and received my law degree from Samford University in 1976.  I practiced law until 1980 when I went back to school at the University of Denver to obtain a Master’s of Law Librarianship degree.  After graduating, I worked at the law library at the University of Texas at Austin for three years.  For the past 23 years I have been employed at the Howard W. Hunter Law Library at B.Y.U. first as a reference librarian and now as the associatedirector.

Except for a dog and a cat, my wife, Becky and I are empty nesters.  We have two married children and two grandchildren.

My favorite document is probably the Code of Federal Regulations and particularly the e-C.F.R. version.  I believe the rules and regulations in the C.F.R. affect more lives on a day to day basis than any other set of codified laws.
