History

The need for a comprehensive guide to the interpretation of the Constitution was apparent to Congress from early in the 20th century. In 1911, the Senate Manual contained the United States Constitution and Amendments with citations to decisions by the U.S. Supreme Court concerning constitutional law.

The Constitution Annotated has been published as a bound edition every 10 years, with biannual updates in the intervening years that cover new constitutional case law. In 2013, to coincide with the centennial edition, new resources were introduced, including a frequently revised "digital update" version hosted by the

GPO's Federal Digital System (FDsys) and a mobile app for iOS devices, with an Android version under development.[1][6]
