Microforms Collection

The Microforms Department, located on the fourth floor of the Library, has an extensive collection of legal resources in microfiche or microfilm format.  There are two reader/printers available in the department.  Paper copies of microfilm and microfiche images can be made a a cost of $.10 per page.  Images can also be stored in electronic format and either downloaded to a disk, or sent to a user's email account.  The holdings in this collection include: copies of older major law reviews; retrospective and current issues of select legal newspapers; U.S. Supreme Court records and briefs; House and Senate bills and resolutions (beginning with the 78th Congress, 1943); House and Senate committee reports; old state and federal reports and session laws; the Federal Register and the Code of Federal Regulations; U.S. treaties; and many historical legal treatises. Microfiche and microfilm titles often are backup copies of the paper and/or online version of legal resources.  Most microform titles are searchable in the online catalog and will show a location of "Microforms."  There is usually a cabinet number or a series number in the catalog record that corresponds to the numbers found on the cabinets in the Microforms Department.  Please ask for assistance in using this collection.
