The multitude of laws and regulations that control a company’s ability to successfully obtain and maintain a contract with the government can be exceedingly complicated. To help our patrons who are interested in contracting with the federal government (or even those who are simply interested in the consequences of such a contracting relationship), we have collected a sampling of resources available, both at the Law Library of Congress and on the free web, to help researchers begin their research in this area of law.

Please note that we cannot provide legal advice, interpretation, or analysis which could be interpreted as the practice of law; extensive bibliographies or legislative histories; or answers for student homework assignments. Although our research guides are selective, inclusion of a site or resource does not constitute endorsement by the Law Library of Congress. None of the information in any of our research guides is legal advice.
