include the predecessors of the Congressional
Record-the Annals of Congress (1789-1824), Register of Debates (1824-1837), and the Congressional Globe (1833-1873). Treaty materials such as the Department
of State Treaty Series (1927-1945), League of
Nations Treaty Series (1920-1946), United Nations
Treaty Series (1946-1974), and the United States
Department of State Bulletin (1939-1981) are among
these holdings. The microforms collection is further
augmented with full sets of attorney general opinion
and sessions laws for most states, CIS legislative
microfiche collection (1970 - ), Supreme Court
Records and Briefs (1935 - ), Statues-at-Large
(1789-1976), selected 19th century appellate cases,
legal periodicals and many others. There are also three public access microform readers for viewing government documents in micro-formats. The Minolta MS 6000 digital Scanner/Printer located in the GDMD office (B30) is the main machine used to print microform. |
