the History of Bills), Volume 140 (1994), the Congressional Record
Index, Volumes 138-140 (1992-1994), and Enrolled Bills from the 103d
Congress (1993-1994). The Federal Register and Congressional Record
data bases provide ASCII text files, with all graphics included as
individual files in TIFF format. Both data bases are updated daily.
Brief ASCII text summaries of each Federal Register entry are also
available. The Congressional Record Index provides ASCII text files
with all graphics included as individual files in TIFF format. The
Enrolled Bills are available as ASCII text files and in the Adobe
Acrobat PDF file format. Users with Acrobat viewers can display and
print page facsimiles of enrolled bills.
Seating is limited to 60 people per session. Individuals interested
