About Documents Holdings

The Paul Meek Library is a selective depository of approximately 100,000 U.S. government documents. These documents can cover any topic which might possibly concern the American people and can be in a variety of material types (e.g. pamphlets, maps, newsletters, scholarly publications) and may be in paper, microform, or electronic format

In our library, most of these documents are classified by the Superintendent of Documents Classification which arranges publications together by individual agency or department and by type of publication. Some documents are included in the library's online catalog, but many more are not. To locate those not in the online catalog you will need to use the Monthly Catalog of U.S. Government Publications.
