But I was wondering whether there was any index somewhere (say, online,
or that it could be checked) the dates and the amounts.  For instance,
the Federal Reserve of New York published recently due to the pandemic
that they would be buying treasure bonds in a certain amount and they
reported how much they had bought each day they did.

Is money printing being published somewhere?

I will read the Federal Reserve Act and I'll come back.

In that case, I will also read

to see if I can get the context.

Thank you!
