Abstract

Today, while widespread lack of understanding about the nature of congressional content persists, the ongoing digitization and access through full-text searching of both current and historical congressional documents provides enhanced opportunities to allow both sophisticated and novice researchers to easily explore government information sources, including congressional documents, and to discover ways in which the content transcends disciplinary lines.
