The THOMAS legislative information system from the Library of Congress has posted a beta version of several new features. The direct link to the features being tested is thomas.loc.gov/beta/ — or you can click on the Explore new features link on the main page to check it out.
New capabilities being tested include:
- Search all THOMAS databases for all congresses with one search.
- Sort search results by document type (bills, committee reports, etc), relevance, or date.
- Navigate and refine searches with new options on the search results and document display screens.
THOMAS includes a link to offer comments on the new features. Before doing so, be sure to read the helpful section About the New THOMAS (Beta) and–in particular–the helpful FAQs.
