[blindlaw] westlaw and the c.f.r.?

[Nightingale, Noel]

To my knowledge, there is no website or electronic source that has all code of federal regulations from the beginning of time.  I have had to research regulations from the 1960s and found no electronic source, only the hardcopy in my agency's library.

Hi everybody.
 
I'm currently in the process of obtaining a security clearance for a job with the feds. One of my major duties will be using Westlaw to research regs and all that good stuff. When I was in law school, I utilized Westlaw because I preferred it over Lexis (easier to navigate, etc., as I've read from other members' posts on this list.)
 
Anyway, I remember my law librarian telling me that Westlaw only goes back to the mid 1970's or something like that for the C.F.R. For those of you who research the C.F.R. as a fed or in your general practice, where do you go if you need a reg that predates Westlaw's collection? Is there an web site that has all of the regs?
 
Thanks.
 
Mike
