Updated LexisNexis Congressional Guide

I've updated the LN Congressional guide to reflect the new interface. It's not a step-by-step user guide to every part of the database. Instead I've provided a basic introduction, coverage chart and highlighted potentially problematic aspects of the database. in general, the change is an improvement. But there are definitely some quirks, so please take a look through http://govpubs.lib.umn.edu/guides/congcomp.phtml, especially if you can't get to the training next week.

Also, patrons will need to be directed to Fillmore to use it for the time being because all the public terminals are blocking popups and so users can't get to the Help.
