How to Find the Golden Gleams of Government Documents

Schuyler M. Cook | March 25, 2007 - 20:31

When was the last time you thought about Government Documents? Probably the last time you read a newspaper article or heard an NPR report or watched a PBS news show whose story began with words such as, "according to a government study released today..." Shame on the media (particularly the print folks) who could provide us all some portion of a citation to allow us easier access to the source to which they refer.

Suffer the fear and loathing of Government Documents no more. To help get you to those sources and so much more, please utilize the following tutorial by Charles E. Malone, the Government Information Librarian at Western Illinois University "Agency Approach to Finding Government Information."

Mr. Malone has completed his first update since 1999 and it is absolutely worth your time.

Evolving Nature of Faculty Publications

Jan Novak, Associate Director jan.novak@law.csuohio.edu | March 08, 2007 - 12:39

Former Circulation & Faculty Services Librarian Leslie Pardo (now at Arizona State University) and I discussed some of the issues involved in setting up the C-M Faculty Publications database, in an article soon to be published in volume 26 of Legal Reference Services Quarterly. The Evolving Nature of Faculty Publications (Cleveland-Marshall Legal Studies Paper No. 07-134; available at SSRN: http://ssrn.com/abstract=961879), addresses ways libraries face the challenges involved in managing, preserving and disseminating new and divergent forms of faculty scholarship.
