The redesign of the U.S. Courthouse lobby was completed in December 2001. The District and Circuit Courts included in the redesign the installation of automated informational kiosks and the development of a liaison relationship with the new National Constitution Center on Independence Mall. The kiosk system includes:

• Daily information on District Court hearings and Court of Appeals hearings
• Directory of judges and Court clerks
• Directory of other government agencies
• General information

The kiosks include touch screen technology, as well as mapping techniques to guide visitors to their destinations.
