How does the Law Library of Congress help Members of Congress and Congressional Staff?
Members of Congress and Congressional Staff may visit https://www.loc.gov/research-centers/law-library-of-congress/for-congress/ for information about the Law Library’s congressional services and instructions for sending a legal reference or research question to Law Library staff. This site is only accessible to Members and Staff on Capitol Hill. Law Library staff can also be reached at 202-707-5080 or via Ask a Librarian.
Established by Congress in 1832, the Law Library has a collection of over 2.65 million volumes spanning the ages and covering virtually every jurisdiction in the world.
We cannot provide legal advice, interpretation, or analysis which could be interpreted as the practice of law; extensive bibliographies or legislative histories; or answers for student homework assignments.
