Congressional Record -- daily edition to permanent edition
There may be very few libraries (if any) that have the Record with the
daily pagination back 24 years ago. To get the cite to the Bound edition
pages a little more information is required. By looking at the Daily Digest
of the bound edition for that date (for H pages look under House "Chamber
Action") one can usually determine the proper cite. For instance, if the
topic you want concerns the adoption of the conference report on S. 2475,
improving automobile fuel efficiency, than pages 28386-28388 are what you
need. There is no electronic version of the bound edition of the
Congressional Record. Lexis and Westlaw go back to 1985 (daily edition
only).
