Government Documents

 Government Documents are  located in J.D. Williams Library. To find government information, search the UM Library Catalog or Government Documents Databases or Government Information Guides. Please see our Government Documents Collections page for more information on locations and access.

A federal depository since 1883, the Library is the Regional Federal Depository for Mississippi and holds the largest federal documents collection in the state.  It is also a Mississippi state documents depository. We receive all government publications distributed through the U.S. Federal Depository Library Program (Title 44, USC) and through the Mississippi State Depository Program.

Our mission is to make our resources and services available to the citizens of Mississippi and to Mississippi’s libraries, as well as to the students, staff, and faculty of the university.
