Most of the Law Library’s books, journals, and microform holdings are listed in the LOC Catalog. Frequently used legal research databases are listed on the Law Library's website under Researcher Resources: Databases. Some of the Law Library’s holdings are listed in finding aids available only in the Law Library Reading Room, and consultation with a reference librarian may be necessary to locate such materials.
Not all items in the Law Library’s collections are guaranteed to be available when requested. Items are available on a first-come, first-served basis. Requests from the U.S. Congress and the U.S. Supreme Court take priority.
There is a short video tutorial on Searching the Library of Congress Catalog for Legal Materials. In this video, learn how to search the Library of Congress's catalog to find legal materials in the Law Library's collection, how to request items for delivery to the reading room for your on-site use, and how to identify materials located in various collections of the Law Library that may require special processes to request. Additional pre-recorded webinars, tutorials, and events are featured on the Law Library's Legal Research Institute: Past Presentations.
