CRS Reports
in Homeland Security/Terrorism and Health Law & Policy
The Congressional Research Service, an arm of the Library of Congress, serves the legislative process by providing Congress with non-partisan and in-depth legislative research and analysis on a variety of topics. CRS produces or updates more than 3,000 studies and other publications each year, none of which are distributed to the public. Before CRS reports became more readily accessible to the research community through the open web, the Thurgood Marshall Law Library created an online CRS archive collection in the subject areas of Homeland Security/Terrorism and Health Law and Policy from 1993 – 2013.
Other sources for free CRS Reports include:
- Agriculture and Food Issues (National Agricultural Law Center)
- Science and the Environment (National Library for the Environment)
- U.S. and Foreign Policy (Foreign Press Centers at U.S. State Department)
- Intellectual Property, Cyberlaw, and Electronic Commerce (IP Mall at Franklin Pierce Law School)
- Intelligence, Military and National Security (Federation of American Scientists)
- The University of North Texas (Reports on a variety of subjects)
- The office of the Senator or Representative who requested the report.
Subscription sources for CRS Reports include:
- Bloomberg Law, 2011-present (UMB Restricted);
- The ProQuest Congressional Research Digital Collection, 1916-present (UMB Restricted);
The Thurgood Marshall Law Library obtains CRS reports from a variety of sources and makes no warranties of any kind regarding the contents of the reports archived here.
