The Library of Congress recently announced it has made the Congressional Record available as an app to users of iPad tablet devices. The app can be found at itunes.apple.com/us/app/the-congressional-record/id492077075.

The Congressional Record delivered through the app is a PDF document that can be shared via email and be able to be browsed by date and searchable by keyword within an individual document or section; documents can also be saved to the iPad. Content includes Congressional Record issues dating from January 4, 1995 through the present.

The content for the app is provided by the Office of the Clerk of the U.S. House of Representatives, the Office of the Secretary of the Senate and the Government Printing Office.
