CRS Reports

in Homeland Security/Terrorism and Health Law & Policy

---

The Congressional Research Service, an arm of the Library of Congress, serves the legislative process by providing Congress with non-partisan and in-depth legislative research and analysis on a variety of topics. CRS produces or updates more than 3,000 studies and other publications each year, none of which are distributed to the public. Because CRS reports are created using public money and are not readily accessible to the research community, the Thurgood Marshall Law Library has created an online collection in the subject areas of Homeland Security/Terrorism and Health Law and Policy.

Other useful web sources of CRS reports include the following subject archives.

• Environmental Law & Policy (National Library for the Environment)
• Foreign Policy and Relations (U.S. State Department)
• Intellectual Property, Cyberlaw, and Electronic Commerce (IP Mall at Franklin Pierce Law School)
• Intelligence, Military and National Security (Federation of American Scientists)

The Thurgood Marshall Law Library obtains CRS reports from a variety of sources and makes no warranties of any kind regarding the contents of the reports archived here.
