Cataloging Toolbox for State & Local Government Information

The Illinois State Library manages the Illinois Documents Depository Program. All state agencies are required to deposit their publications with the State Library.

State publications received by the State Library are listed in the monthly publication Illinois Document List and in an annual compilation, Publications of the State of Illinois.

From the introduction, " Like its predecessors, the 56th edition of the Blue Book continues the tradition of providing up-to-date information about state officials, government offices and a snapshot of Illinois facts and history."

Classification scheme adapted from the Superintendent of Documents classification for use with Illinois state documents.

Search for full text Illinois state documents that have been deposited into the Illinos State Library's Electronic Documents of Illinois database. Documents can be searched by subject, issuing agency, or a website search (keyword). For current documents that may have been deposited within the last 30 days, search under "what's new."
