GPO Launches Deep Linking Tool for CFR Citations

Code of Federal Regulations: Linking to Documents:

"Documents that exist within the CFR on GPO Access cannot be bookmarked. In order to link to these documents, a unique URL string must be created. This string consists of six elements:

the URL of the cgi script which retrieves the document

the CFR Title

the CFR part

the CFR section or subpart

the type of file (TEXT or PDF) you'd like to link to

the CFR revision year (OPTIONAL) (if no year is specified, the most recent will be used)

To assist users in linking to documents within the CFR, the following form has been created. Simply input the required fields and hit GENERATE."
