Government Information

Federal Documents

Print U.S. documents are mostly located on the 2nd floor of D. H. Hill. With the exception of some important reference materials, most documents can be checked out. Documents are also received as microfiche, CD-ROM, DVD, or via the internet. Not all documents are listed in the library's catalog--especially before 1999-- so you may need to ask a librarian for help or use the guides listed below.
