Acknowledgment
The University of San Carlos–School of Law and Governance
Library has come up with its 3rd Compilation of the Title Index to
the Official Gazette.
The OG Title Index project prepared by the Library Staff

was started with 1st OG 1929-1934 in March 2001 to April 2002
and the 2nd OG for Republic Acts 1990- 2005 in 2006-2007. For its
recent compilation it covers 3rd OG from 1913 – 1928 in November
2011- December 2012. The primary reason for the project is for
quick retrieval of laws which are found in the OFFICIAL
GAZETTE.
