Documents Data Miner 3 (DDM3) is a library management system for United States Government Documents. It is a valuable website for processing depository items. One can retrieve shipping lists from 1997 to the present and customize shipping lists for a specific depository. This was originally co-created by Nan Myers, the Government Documents librarian at Wichita State University Libraries until June 2018, but the database is now maintained by GPO. Is possibly available through a link on the ALA Government Documents Round Table libguide at https://godort.libguides.com/toolbox-federal/itemselection.
University Libraries has been a Government Document Depository since 1901. Summer 2012 we had a major weeding and re-organization project. The SuDoc call numbers in this handout are now located in Compact Shelving.
This informational handout includes information about using Campus Research and LexixNexis Academic. Useful vocabulary to know for legal research is listed.
Two sample questions are included with results:
"I need a U.S. Supreme Court case from the last two years. I'd like it to be about "equal opportunity."
"Does the city of Wichita have the right to put fluoride in city water...?"
The Consumer Price Index is used to calculate inflation, or the change in price of a basket of goods and services, as it impacts consumers.
The Producer Price Index measures changes in selling prices, thereby expressing price changes from the perspective of the seller who produces a particular commodity.
