This is a guest post by Ann Hemmens, legal reference librarian at the Law Library of Congress.
Through an agreement with the Library of Congress, the publisher William S. Hein & Co., Inc. has generously allowed the Law Library of Congress to offer free online access to historical U.S. legal materials from HeinOnline. These titles are available through the Library’s web portal, Guide to Law Online: U.S. Federal, and include:
- United States Code 1925-1988 (includes content up to 1993)
- From Guide to Law Online: United States Law
- United States Reports v. 1-542 (1754-2004)
- From Guide to Law Online: United States Judiciary
- Code of Federal Regulations (1938-1995)
- From Guide to Law Online: Executive
- Federal Register v. 1-58 (1936-1993)

These collections are browseable. For example, to locate the 1982 version of the Bankruptcy code in Title 11 of the U.S. Code you could select the year (1982) and then Title number (11) to retrieve the material.
