Each of our fifty states has its own state constitution. Apart from these, the state constitution is the highest primary legal authority for the state. All state codes are not published in the same manner, so there may be differing editorial or bibliographic features in the various codes.
Book has constitutions of all fifty states and all U.S. territories.
Looseleaf, kept current by supplements. The library holds the superseded volumes of all state codes, mostly in microfiche. The original, as well as any subsequent, constitutions of a state were most likely adopted through the convening of a state constitutional convention. The journals, proceedings, records, and other documents generated by these conventions are invaluable for historical background and interpretative material on the state constitution. Fortunately, our library holds the complete collection of all state constitutional conventions and commissions.
