- ProQuest Congressional Universe (full text through 2010 or so), citations complete
- Note as well that for hearings (and reports) >2003, you can also use FDSys, the Federal Government's search tool. Search: http://www.gpo.gov/fdsys/browse/collection.action?collectionCode=CHRG. Some of these hearings may be rather long and detailed and difficult to browse in an electronic/digital environment. We have large numbers of print hearings available in our storage library. In addition, the digital versions may not include all important supplementary information that is sometimes included in congressional hearings and prints. You will need to make a request via DiscoverE for the paper copy!
