Congress.gov (www.congress.gov) is the official public website for legislative information and includes data for bills and resolutions, the Congressional Record, committee reports, nominations, treaties, and executive communications.

The website offers a full spectrum of search tools and other research resources. The Library of Congress Congress.gov team plans to briefly discuss the history of Congress.gov and provide a demonstration of its capabilities. Attendees are encouraged to bring specific research questions for an interactive question-and-answer session after the demonstration.
