FCIC, founded in 1970, began as the federal government's distribution outlet for free and low cost federal consumer publications sent out from the Government Printing Office (GPO) facility in Pueblo, Colorado.
Since 1970, FCIC's mission has broadened significantly to include helping people interact with the federal government via toll-free telephone numbers, print publications, and a family of web sites and other electronic resources such as Twitter and Facebook accounts.
[1] The FCIC distribution facility in Pueblo received so much mail that the United States Postal Service assigned it its own ZIP Code, 81009.
A 2006 FCIC audience survey showed that more than 26% of the respondents recognized Pueblo as a source of helpful federal information.
In 2010 President Barack Obama signed a law renaming FCIC's building the Congressman Frank Evans Government Printing Office Distribution Center[3][4] or the Frank Evans Government Printing Office Building.
