There’s no better time than now to prep for spring cleaning, graduation parties and other get-togethers, or summer vacations, and there’s no better way to get ready than with the spring edition of the Consumer Information Catalog. It’s got more than 200 free and low-cost government publications on everything under the sun—just what you’ll need for whatever your springtime plans include.

Here’s a sampling of what you’ll find:

  • Cooking for Groups: A Volunteer’s Guide to Food Safety (Item 621R, free). Keep guests at your graduation party, community dinner, or family reunion safe from food-borne illnesses with this extensive guide.
  • Your Home (Item 599R, free). Seasonal maintenance, home improvements, buying or selling—this handy brochure has advice for many of the projects you might decide to tackle this spring.
  • Building Financial Freedom (Item 569R, free). Who could forget about getting their financial house in order? Learn how to track your spending, develop or improve your savings strategies, and get tips on finding more good financial advice.
  • U.S. Government Auto Auctions (Item 577R, free). Whether you need a car, truck, or SUV, buying from Uncle Sam is a great way to find a late model vehicle for a reasonable price. Learn more about government auctions and where to find an auto worth cleaning out the garage for.
