as are most convenient to the legislators. It shall keep and file copies of all bills, resolutions, amendments, memorials,
reports of committees, journals and other documents printed by order of either house
of the legislature unless readily available elsewhere; and collect, catalog and index
the same as soon as practicable after they have been printed; if appropriations are

and upon request, furnish to the legislative council service such documents, material
or information as may be requested by the members of the legislative council or by
the director of the legislative council service, which are not made confidential by
law. The legislative council service shall cooperate with the legislative service agencies
of other states, and shall interchange information and research material with them.
