Beginning June 15, 1995, STAT-USA consolidated its Internet operations by shifting its huge library of trade, economic, and business documents to the STAT-USA World Wide Web site: www.stat-usa.gov. The previous STAT-USA gopher and file transfer protocol servers are discontinued.
Since its inception on June 15, 1994, the STAT-USA Internet information service has become a highly demanded resource -- over 10,000 connections are made to STAT-USA in a typical week. The surge in popularity of the World Wide Web over this period has allowed STAT-USA to put advanced tools to work for Internet users interested in data from the National Trade Data Bank and the National Economic, Social, and Environmental Data Bank. Subscriptions to the STAT-USA World Wide Web information service are available for as little as $25.95. Federal Depository Libraries continue to qualify for no-charge access.
