Government Documents: Gov Docs in the BU Library

Start by searching in the One Stop Search box. If you don't find what you want, try looking at the Online Gov Docs Tab in this guide, or contact me - I'm happy to help.!

For items on a particular subject (euthanasia, for example), simply do your search on the Library Catalogue. Government Documents will be searched along with all other items on the Catalogue and will appear in your result list. You probably won't even realize that some of the results are Gov Docs until you look at the 'book.'

NOTE:

• Not all Gov Docs in the BU Library are on the BU Library Catalogue.
• Government Documents are located in collections throughout the BU Library - including Main Library, Music Library, Reference Collection, Oversize Collection, Pamphlet File, and so on.
• Laws, Bills, Statutes, and Regulations are unlikely to be located by searching their specific titles, even if they are in the BU Library. When you do a search for a specific law or bill, any result list is more likely to be items ABOUT that law or bill, not the law or bill itself. Please contact me if you can't find what you want. The Find a Law Tab of this Guide could be helpful.
