The Publications Office of the European Union is based in Luxembourg and is the central point of access to EU law, publications, open data, research results, procurement notices and other official information. It ensures that this broad range of EU information is available to the public as accessible and reusable data to facilitate transparency, economic activity, and the diffusion of knowledge. The Publications Office therefore plays a central role in informing the public about what the EU does and means for them, and in unlocking the power of data.
