A Quick Look at the NLRB Website

By far, one of the best Federal agency websites has to be the website of the National Labor Relations Board.

The Electronic Reading Room provides access to the NLRB Rules and Regulations, Decisions and Orders, and Weekly Summary of NLRB Cases, plus NLRB Public Notices, which include Federal Register Notices; General Counsel Memoranda; Operations-Management Memoranda; a description of the NLRB's Public Information Program; Representation Cases; Unfair Labor Practice Cases; and the NLRB's Government Information Locator Service (GILS). Also available from the Electronic Reading Room are NLRB Manuals, Press Releases, FOIA Manual and regs, annual FOIA reports and a section dedicated to "Hot Docs.

The Board's e-Gov services are no less impressive. They include:

E-Filing
General Counsel: Request for Extension of Time
Board: File Documents with Executive Secretary

E-Research
Classified Index the Electronic Network (Citenet)   

E-FOIA
Go to Where To File Your FOIA Request for guidance concerning which NLRB office may have the records you seek. Click on Sample Letter if you wish to see or copy a form letter that you can use to make a FOIA request. Click on E-FOIA Request if you wish to file an electronic FOIA request for records located in the Agency's headquarters office in Washington, DC.

Although the navigation system is fairly straightforward, I find the site map is the best way to find information and materials provided by the NLRB on its site.
