Many agencies have some or all of their documents printed by other sources. The fact that an item is a government document does not mean that it will be available in the Law Library.
Most items selected are directly related to the law, legislation or legal subjects.
Some of the materials are received on microfiche, some are in paper, and many government documents are available on the Internet through various sources. Various federal legislative materials, such as Congressional Record , legislative histories, and current bills are also available on Lexis and Westlaw. Every depository item currently received is listed in a computer-generated listing. Copies of this listing are available at the Circulation Desk and on the end of the shelving unit on the second floor where the government documents collection begins. Some items, such as the United States Code or United States Reports are also listed in the online catalog.
