How to cite Parliamentary Papers

The form suggested here follows the scheme proposed by Hansard, in his first General Alphabetical Index, 1801-1826.

Title and description / session / paper number / volume number.page number

e.g. Return of Number of Persons who have emigrated from G.B. and Ireland to Colonies and U.S.A., 1825-32; 1833 (696) XXVI.279

For a reference to a statement on a particular page of a paper, the title and description should be followed by the printed page number of the paper itself:

e.g. Papers on Union of British Columbia with Dominion of Canada. p.2; 1868-69 (390) XLIII.341

How to cite American State Papers and Congressional Serial Set

As there are numerous ways of citing American government documents, we recommend that you consult the specific instructions for the style in which you are required to submit references and citations. There is some useful information available at this Library of Congress website.
