LexisNexis Congressional transcripts

LexisNexis has discovered a glitch - and a work-around - in the links in their system to non-digital hearing transcripts. The problem occurs with a Basic search and Search by Number forms. (Link is Legislative histories, and Bills & Laws should be functional; links to PDFs are also unaffected.)

LN will be fixing the problem with a system change on February 11, and until then recommends the following to access hearings records/transcripts in the LN Congressional database:

• go to the Advanced search,
  
• select the option “All fields including full text” and
  
• choose something such as the name of the committee and the date to create a search that will retrieve the content you need.
