Drake Library has been a Federal Depository Library since 1967 and is currently receiving approximately 37 percent of all publications available. The collection, however, dates back to 1789 with the American State Papers (1789-1838), serials set (1817-1978), and the Readex collection (1953-1980), all in microformats.
In recent years, the library has been selecting documents on CD-ROMs, such as the 1990 Census of Population. Others include the National Trade Data Bank, County & City Data, including maps.
The library also provides access via Internet Explorer to home pages of United States President and former presidents; and various government agencies. Some popular ones are listed below. Click the underlined words to access those sites.
