The College of Wooster has been a selective depository for U.S. government publications and resources since 1966. The library chooses materials from available federal information sources to support the curriculum, the I.S. program, faculty research, and community interests. These materials are organized in the library by the Superintendent of Documents (SuDocs) classification system. If you need assistance with this extensive collection, please ask a librarian for help.
