<P> 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 first edition of the Constitution Annotated was published by the 63rd Congress as Senate Document 12, in 1913 . Ten years later in 1923, another edition was published, Senate Document 96 of the 67th Congress, followed in turn by Senate Document 154 of the 68th Congress . </P> <P> 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 . </P>
