ProQuest Congressional unveils new interface

September 20, 2012 · Margaret Krause

Researchers looking for congresional publications, such as hearings, committee reports and prints will notice that ProQuest Congressional has a new look. Unveiled recently, the new interface features a Basic Search, Advanced Search and Search By Number option.

While the Basic Search searches full text, titles and all bibliographic data, the Advanced Search capability allows users to restrict their search to a specific date range or Congress, as well as publication type providing more focused results.

The Search by Number feature is best used with a known citation, such as 107 S. Rpt. 5. Users should also make use of the "How Do I?" feature in the right hand column, which will direct them to the best search form for legislative histories.

Please feel free to ask a reference librarian if you have any questions about the new ProQuest Congressional interface!
