Government Publications and Information--Non-U.S.
Agencies and offices of national, state, province, and local governments produce census reports, statutes, statistical reports and data sets, and other materials that serve as primary sources for research in a range of humanities and social science fields. The years since World War II also gave rise to a number of intergovernmental organizations, like the United Nations, World Bank, International Monetary Fund, World Health Organization, NATO, and others, which also aggregate and generate important statistical, financial, and economic development-related information.
