GovInfo Bulk Data Folders of a Collection (Congresses or Years)

govinfobulk/list-collection-folder

The sub-folders of one GovInfo bulk collection: the Congresses of BILLSTATUS, BILLS and PLAW, the volumes of STATUTE, or the years of CFR, each with its last-modified time and a link to its listing. One level only: file-level listings of a congress folder run to megabytes and are not offered. U.S. government works, served by Eden Engine; not an official GovInfo product.
