The U.S. Congressional Serial Set is a large and complex publication. Several Federal depository libraries have shared inventories of the Serial Set and other guides to help others use this important collection.
- U.S. Congressional Serial Set Inventory (University of North Texas): This inventory brings together holdings in U.S. libraries for Serial Set numbers 1 through 13219-3. The inventory offers search and browse by volume, library, and Congressional session.
- Congressional Serial Set (Washington University): This inventory is the complete holdings of the Serial Set at Washington University, St. Louis University, the St. Louis City Public Library, and the University of Missouri—St. Louis.
- U.S. Congressional Serial Set Finding Aids (College of Wooster through the University of Central Florida): These finding aids provide information on executive agency publications found in the Serial Set.
