Pacifici "With the rapidly expanding use of the Internet, we believe it is appropriate for Members and Committees to use their web sites to further disseminate CRS products...we encourage you to post CRS products on your web site." U.S. Senate, Committee on Rules and Administration, June 10, 1998 Table of Contents Since 1914 this component of the Library of Congress has provided Congress with research and objective analysis on a wide variety of topics. In 1946 the LRB was made a separate division of the Library of Congress and officially named the Legislative Reference Service (60 STAT 812, 836). Under the Legislative Reorganization Act of 1970 the LRS was again renamed, this time with the title Congressional Research Service, and its statutory mission was more clearly defined. As a source of non-partisan, timely, and accurate information the CRS reports are often regarded as second to none, however there has recently been criticism voiced over the lack of public access to these documents (see, for example, the

35. CRS Reports Should Be Available To The Public
    From Accuracy in Media by Paul Weyrich, Chairman and CEO of the Free Congress Foundation.  
    http://www.aim.org/guest-column/crs-reports-should-be-available-to-the-public/
    
    Extractions: Greenwashing America Among the many things it has done, the Internet has made a vast amount of knowledge on nearly every topic available within seconds. Nearly a hundred years ago the Library of Congress established an exclusive service for Members of the House of Representatives and United States Senators. The Congressional Research Service (CRS) is a publicly funded arm of the Library of Congress, a think-tank providing non-partisan research reports on any subject requested by Congressional offices or committee staff. CRS even sends employees to meet with individual Members of Congress and their staffs and brief them on whatever research has been done on their specific topic. Much of this research is conducted to inform Members about issues on which legislation is pending or may soon be introduced. However, the process also may be reversed. Sometimes a Senator or Representative knows that a certain issue is important to his or her State or District and needs information to bolster an argument. Having a service like CRS at its fingertips is just one of the many Congressional perks of office. However, many argue that a service of this caliber when paid for by the public also should be accessible to the public. The information available in these reports could be a valuable tool for everyone, especially those little people we call taxpayers who are footing the bill for this agency yet do not have access to its services.

36. Public Access To Congressional Research Service Products
    Internal memo from CRS on publication policy and why they should not be available to the public without review.  
    http://www.fas.org/sgp/news/2003/12/crs.html
    
    Extractions: FAS Note: The following internal memo from the Congressional Research Service presents the CRS perspective on publication of CRS products. Many of you have seen references in the media and may have received questions regarding public access to CRS products and the new system adopted by our oversight committee for the House to enable Members and committees to more easily place products of their choosing on their Web sites. What follows describes the new system and outlines some of the issues surrounding the debate over public access to our work. Directive Issued by the Committee on House Administration. The Committee on House Administration recently replaced a pilot effort in the House, under which a small number of Members were able to disseminate a limited number of CRS products electronically through their Web sites, with a new system available to all Members and committees. This new arrangement, which utilizes a mirror site created by the Office of House Information Resources (HIR), makes it possible for all congressional offices to place links on their Web sites to an even greater number of CRS products of their choosing than were available under the pilot. Such links will access the most up-to-date version of each product. Congressional offices will use the CRS Web Site to find the products they deem suitable for dissemination. Statutory Restriction.

CRS produces or updates more than 3,000 studies and other publications each year, none of which are distributed to the public.
