Here is what I received today from our Government Documents Librarian. The links contain a lot of useful information for those interested.

Some new web content from the Federal Reserve Bank of St. Louis--I expect the Timeline of the Financial Crisis will be of most interest.   (To get the actual timeline, click the "timeline" tab near the top of the page.)  But the second item--a definition of "seasonally adjusted data" may come in handy some time.


Timeline of the Financial Crisis   http://www.stlouisfed.org/timeline

We have posted a timeline of events and actions for the credit crisis. The site has timeline of market events and Fed and other government agency actions with links to the official source documents.  The website also contains links to relevant economic data and important government agency  websites.  The site will be continually updated, along with additional content features in the next few months.

The latest newsletter  explains what it means when data is seasonally adjusted. 

On FRASER (http://fraser.stlouisfed.org) we have posted the Money Trust Investigation hearings in the publications section.  These were the hearings following the Panic of 1907, and include the famous quote from J.P. Morgan that he lends based on trust (see page 1084 from the December 19, 1912 hearing).    In addition, FRASER historical documents collection now has the Federal Open Market Committee minutes and policy documents (1967-1992), and also the economic forecasts of FOMC members, starting in 2007.  We have also posted the Federal Reserve Bulletins for the 1930's.
 
Happy New Year!
