The House of Commons / Lords Library provides impartial information and research services for Members of Parliament and their staff in support of their parliamentary duties.
One of the main products of the Library is the research briefings, which are published to the parliamentary website. These briefing papers offer an independent summary of facts on subjects of interest, particularly legislation proceeding through Parliament.
The Library also includes the collection of documents, known as deposited papers, which MPs and ministers place in the Library in reply to parliamentary questions.
Full details can be found at http://www.parliament.uk/commons-library.
