As our regular readers will know, one of the LII\u2019s most-used collections is the Code of Federal Regulations, which is an online version of the official compilation of the regulations published in the Federal Register. \u00a0Our edition has <\/span>lots<\/span><\/a> of<\/span><\/a> useful<\/span><\/a> features<\/span><\/a>, but we\u2019ve regularly gotten one big complaint: it\u2019s out of date. (Our online text is based on the published book, which can be up to a full year behind.)<\/span><\/p>\n

Well, those seeking up-to-the-minute regulations (well, up-to-the-last-few-days, anyway) are in luck. \u00a0The Office of the Federal Register and the GPO <\/span>have made available<\/span><\/a>,<\/span> in bulk, <\/span><\/a>\u00a0a machine-readable (XML) text of the eCFR, the Electronic Code of Federal Regulations. \u00a0The eCFR is unofficial, but it is very much up to date.<\/span><\/p>\n

So, in order to satisfy \u00a0those of you who have been eager to get the latest in great tasting, less-filling, fresh-from-the-oven regulations, we are going to be rolling out our new edition of the CFR, based on the up-to-date eCFR XML, \u00a0as we go. \u00a0We have put the <\/span>bare-bones text<\/span><\/a> up as quickly as possible. \u00a0Many of you have told us how much you like the value we add to our editions — rest assured that we \u00a0will be adding in all the features you value just as soon as we can adapt them to the new data format. While we\u2019re renovating, \u201cCFR Classic\u201d will continue to be available.<\/span><\/p>\n

Stay tuned on this blog for details about the process of designing, developing, and implementing those features, as well as announcements when they are up and running. \u00a0And let us know what you\u2019d like to see added – we always love to hear from you!<\/span><\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
