The library has a small collection of United States government documents related to law and policy. We also have major reference works produced by the government.</p><p>In addition to the Federal Depository Library Program, we serve as a depository for records and briefs from the Supreme Court of the United States.</p><p>The Government Documents Librarian and the Library鈥檚 Resource Management Services Department work together to process all new government documents. New titles received in tangible format are cataloged or checked-in through the library鈥檚 catalog. Bibliographic records for e-resources are batch loaded regularly from a vendor. The law library no longer weeds FDLP titles. All tangible items are retained in the stacks or offsite at the Library Shelving Facility.</p><p>Yale University Library has been a selective depository for U.S. federal government publications since 1859, and has a selection rate over 80%. Other depository libraries in the area include the University of New Haven and the <a href="https://libguides.ctstatelibrary.org/GIRS/home">Connecticut State Library</a> in Hartford. The Connecticut State Library receives all materials distributed through the Federal Depository Library Program and retains them permanently. It also serves as a resource for all selective depositories in its region, including interlibrary loan. Research librarians can assist you with your research and help you locate hard to find documents, even if they are at other libraries in the area.</p><p>The law library provides access to information in any format currently available. Subject strengths of the collection include congressional publications, tax materials, criminal justice, and judicial procedure guides. We select titles that are primary sources of law, are related to the lawmaking process or are of specific interest to our primary patrons (e.g., public policy materials). Superior reference assistance is provided to patrons using the government documents collection. To this end, we purchase numerous commercial finding aids, indexes and complements to the documents collection. The focus of the collection is on efficient and permanent access to a robust collection of law-related government documents.</p><h3 class="editor-heading">Public Service Policy for Government Information in Electronic Format:</h3><p>Reference service includes assisting all patrons to locate government resources in the library鈥檚 collection and in other depository libraries. Reference librarians provide individual research guidance and training on specific resources for finding government documents. View the research page of the Law Library鈥檚 website for more information.</p><p class="editor-paragraph">A variety of computing facilities are available in the Law Library. Desktop workstations in the main Reading Room permit searching library catalogs and access to the internet for research of government documents. Electrical and network connections, including guest wireless access, are available in the main Reading Room for laptop computers.</p><p>Patrons may access the internet to access government documents in the FDLP electronic collection from any public workstation in the library. In addition, public patrons may use the guest wireless network, in accordance with the university鈥檚 acceptable use guidelines, to access all online government information from their own computers (licensed databases are not available on this network).</p> </div> </div> </div> </div> </div> </div> </div> </div> </div> </div> </div> </main> <footer class="page__footer"> <div class="container"> <div class="footer-top row"> <div id="block-footerlogo" class="block block--basic block--footerlogo"> <div class="field field--body bundle--type-basic"> <p><img alt="Yale Law Library logo" height="80" src="/themes/custom/law-library-yale-edu/logo.svg" width="auto" loading="lazy"></p> </div> </div> </div> <div class="footer-middle row"> <div id="block-contactus" class="block block--basic block--contactus col-md-2"> <div class="block-label">Contact Us</div> <div class="field field--body bundle--type-basic"> <p>(203) 432 - 1608</p><p><a href="mailto:lawlib.webmaster@yale.edu">lawlib.webmaster@</a><br><a href="mailto:lawlib.webmaster@yale.edu">yale.edu</a></p><p>127 Wall Street, New Haven, CT 06511</p><div class="block-label">Follow Us</div><p><a class="x-twitter" href="https://x.com/yalelawlibrary" target="_blank"><span>@yalelawlibrary</span></a></p><p><a class="youtube" style="white-space:nowrap;" href="https://www.youtube.com/channel/UC91nOaQzq1P5-jbrcYhAd7Q" target="_blank"><span>Yale Law Library</span></a></p> </div> </div> <div id="block-footernavigation" class="block block-- block--footernavigation col-md-4"> <div class="block-label">Navigation</div> <ul class="nav"> <li class="nav-item"> <a href="/using-library" class="nav-link" data-drupal-link-system-path="node/10">Using the Library</a> </li> <li class="nav-item"> <a href="/research" class="nav-link" data-drupal-link-system-path="node/11">Research</a> </li> <li class="nav-item active"> <a href="/collections" class="nav-link" data-drupal-link-system-path="node/12">Collections</a> </li> <li class="nav-item"> <a href="/visit" class="nav-link" data-drupal-link-system-path="node/13">Visit</a> </li> <li class="nav-item"> <a href="/about" class="nav-link" data-drupal-link-system-path="node/14">About</a> </li> <li class="nav-item"> <a href="https://www.yale.edu/" class="nav-link" target="_blank">Yale University</a> </li> <li class="nav-item"> <a href="https://law.yale.edu/" class="nav-link" target="_blank">Yale Law School</a> </li> <li class="nav-item"> <a href="https://library.yale.edu/" class="nav-link" target="_blank">Yale University Library</a> </li> </ul> </div> <div id="block-libraryhoursblock" class="block block-- block--libraryhoursblock col-md-6"> <div class="block-label">Today鈥檚 Hours</div><a class="weekly-hours" href="/visit/hours"><span>See Weekly Hours</span></a><div class="locations"><div class="location"><div class="location-name">Lillian Goldman Law</div><div class="location-time">8:00am - 8:00pm; 8pm-12am (YLS community only)</div></div><div class="location"><div class="location-name">Circulation Desk Hours</div><div class="location-time">8am - 8pm</div></div><div class="location"><a class="location-name" href="http://library.law.yale.edu/about/rare-books">Rare Book Room</a><div class="location-time">10am - 12pm, 1pm - 4pm.
