The Library is the oldest federal government library, founded in 1789 by the first Secretary of State. This site acts as a Web presence and access to the library catalog. Since the library itself is closed to the public, electronic access to the catalog may be helpful. Materials found using the catalog may be borrowed by personnel of the Department of State or through Interlibrary Loan. Links available from the site include some Baltic Region on-line Environmental Information Resources and related environmental activities.
Editors review magazines, specialized journals and newspapers to produce each bi-monthly issue.

Resources that are free and publicly available one day may require a fee or restrict access the next, and the location of items may change as menus and homepages are reorganized.
