The Massachusetts Political Almanac is a great resource to consult if you need information about members of the Massachusetts Legislature (also known as the Massachusetts General Court). Volumes of the Political Almanac contain biographical information about legislators, a photograph, committee assignments, office locations, staffing lists, information about the legislator’s district, election results, and more. Since this is such a valuable resource, the State Library owns two sets: one in our Reference collection (with easy access from the Information Desk) and another set in our general stacks. Our print collection starts in 1974 and goes to 2017, the last year this title was printed. While these volumes do not circulate, you can always use them in the library.

If you need information from the Political Almanac post-2017, come into the library and use one of our Public Access Computers (PACs). Once on a PAC, a librarian will log you into State House News Service’s online version of the Political Almanac.
