In February 2019, the Law Library added the following new resources to the collection to support the research and curricular needs of our faculty and students.
New Resources

Contains reports on audits, surveys, investigations, and evaluations of federal programs conducted by the United States Government Accountability Office (GAO). All published reports, testimonies, correspondence, and special publications are included (documents that are restricted or classified are not).
