Constitution Day

Federal Depository Libraries provide free equal access to U.S. government information. FSU Libraries became a federal depository library in 1941. Our government information can be accessed by students, faculty, and the public for free! For additional resources about state, federal, and international government information, please visit the FSU Libraries' Government Information page.

In 2004, the U.S. Congress established September 17 as Constitution Day to commemorate and celebrate the signing of the US Constitution on September 17, 1787 at the Constitutional Convention in Philadelphia. One provision of this law was that colleges and universities around the country should offer educational resources to better understand the Constitution.

FSU Libraries is a Federal Depository Library, allowing us to provide free equitable access to U.S. government publications to the FSU and Tallahassee Community. We are also a State of Florida Depository, and a United Nations Depository Library.
