Proquest Quick Start: US Serial Set Digital Collection

The U.S. Serial Set, a collection of U.S. Government publications compiled under the directive of Congress, captures every aspect of American life from the early 19th century onward:  farming, westward expansion, scientific exploration, politics, international relations, business, and manufacturing. It includes Congressional reports and documents as well as executive agency and departmental reports ordered to be printed by Congress.

The collection contains over 325,000 documents totaling approximately 11 million pages.
