Question: Where can I find state administrative codes?

Several states do not have an administrative code at all. To find out if a state has an administrative code or not, please see Bluebook Table 1. 

We do not have all states administrative codes in print. Those that we do have are no longer renewed; current administrative codes are found online. To find out if our law library collects a state’s administrative code in print or online, please search our law library by subject: Delegated Legislation – [State] 

You will find print editions of these codes in the library:

• Michigan SMITH KFM 4235 1979.A26 
• California MICRO-10 S587 
• New York RETRO KFN5035 1945 .A23x
• Ohio SMITH KFO 35 1994.A23 
• Texas RETRO KF124.5.T49x 

Here are online sources of administrative codes:

• FindLaw has links to legal resources broken down by state, including state websites of administrative codes.
• Lexis Advance and Westlaw have Administrative Codes linked under the state ("Regulations").
