Agency Access to HeinOnline Expanded to Include Additional Databases

Jessica Van Buren, State Law Librarian, indicates that the state's HeinOnline subscription now includes the U.S. Congressional Documents library. This provides state agencies with access to the:

  • Congressional Record (1873-1889 and 1992-2003, with more added each month),
  • Annals of Congress,
  • Register of Debates,
  • Congressional Globe,
  • American State Papers,
  • Journals of the Continental Congress, and
  • Territorial Papers of the United States.

Starting December 1, the state will also have access to the Federal Agency Decisions collection, which includes Comptroller General, Copyright, Patents, FCC, FTC, IRS Cumulative Bulletin, Interstate Commerce Acts, NLRB, NRC, SEC, Tax Court Reports, and Board of Tax Appeals.

These libraries are in addition to the law journal, U.S. Statutes at Large, CFR, Federal Register, U.S. treaties, legal classics and other libraries to which state agencies already have access.

State employees can access HeinOnline from their desktops at http://www.heinonline.org/HOL/Welcome.

Thanks to the State Law Library, with assistance from the State Library, for access to this legal resource.
