The Internet Law Library (formerly the U.S. House of Representatives Internet Law
Library) was originally provided to the public courtesy of the United States House of
Representatives Law Revision
Counsel  Office
of the Law Revision Counsel of the U.S. House of Representativesas part of the Counsel's mission
to make the law (particularly the U.S. Code) available to the public. The Law Revision
Counsel's goal was to provide free public access to the basic documents of U.S. law. |
| | Many
of the documents referenced by the Library reside on servers outside the control of the House of
Representatives. We therefore make no guarantees or warranties as to the accuracy or the
timeliness of the data. On the other hand, we have not deliberately included any inaccurate
data in our directories. If you believe any material referenced by these directories is
inaccurate, please contact us at
refreq@kentlaw.edu |
| | We
also would welcome any suggestions you might have for improving this service (especially sources
for additional legal material).
This site was originally developed and maintained by House Information Resources under the direction of the Law Revision Counsel of the U.S. House of Representatives. |
| | AcknowledgementsThe Internet Law Library is the work of many hands. While criticisms should be addressed as
indicated above, a special thanks should go to the folks at Personal
