Although the Library of Congress does not make Congressional Research Service (CRS) Reports public and the Federal Depository Library Program does not distribute them to libraries, users of the Brooklyn Law School Library can access many of the latest CRS reports by searching the SARA catalog. Use the keywords “Congressional Research Service” and display the Publication/Copyright Date as Newest to oldest. See the search results in this link. Another way for researchers to find the latest CRS Reports is to set up an alert for "CRS report" OR "Congressional Research Service" to find research about current of issues or subjects. Go to http://www.google.com/alerts to set up alerts, or search Google news and scroll to the bottom of the page to create an alert for your search.
