If I may, a criticism

I was looking for a basic copy of the Constitution and the Bill Of Rights. I went to the TFL library and clicked on the link to "Declaration of Independence, Articles, Constitution, and Bill of Rights".

I would challenge anyone to go to that link and quickly find versions of both documents as currently in force. Lots of historical analysis, lots of historical documents, lots of draft versions of documents, etc. No direct link to final versions that I could find.

How 'bout this link for the constitution: http://www.archives.gov/national_arc...ranscript.html

And this one for the Bill of Rights: http://www.archives.gov/national_arc...ranscript.html

By all means leave the link to the constitution.org site, but please add the above links for direct, simple access to the Constitution and Bill of Rights.

better?

I think "versions of the constitution" is the one area where the TFL library now surpasses the THR library.

I'm glad your problem was fixed, but unfortunately I'll still have to dispatch several large and humorless men to your home. Criticism of TFL is not allowed.
