State Documents in the Online Catalog

State documents are cataloged in the LSU online catalog, just like books. If you have the title of a document, then all you have to do is look it up by title. Be careful, sometimes state documents are referred to by shorthand names in the media that are not their real titles.

If you know what agency puts the document out, then you might try looking the document up by author.

For instance:
author - louisiana. dept. of education
author - louisiana. dept. of agriculture and forestry
author - louisiana. dept. of commerce and industry

Unlike federal government documents, there is no way to get the online catalog to display all state documents in the library at once.
