A collection of official gazettes and other key historical government documentation from countries where the integrity of the public record is known to be at risk. CRL’s open web repository promotes transparency and accountability by providing a permanent public record of government documentation that defines the rights and obligations of citizens and records the activities of government. CRL is digitizing official gazettes from its extensive collection of print and microfilm, and will augment these materials by harvesting from the web more recent gazettes and related data published digitally.

Funding for digitization and hosting of gazettes from ten African and Persian Gulf countries was provided in part by the Carnegie Corporation of New York. More about this collection
