Online access to federal budget documents explained – in just seven pages!

The Congressional Research Service (CRS) has authored a handy guide to online availability of the 2013 federal budget documents released in January. FY2012 Budget Documents: Internet and GPO Availability provides a brief description of what’s covered in each volume of this vast and sometimes confounding set, and directions to the online availability of each piece of information (FDsys figures prominently). Like all CRS reports, none of this helpful information is intended for you, of course, but thanks to efforts like the collection of CRS reports at Secrecy News, you sometimes get it anyway.
