Officials are examining computers, DVDs, hard-drives and documents seized from the Abbottabad home where Bin Laden may have hid for up to six years.
Several rallies are expected across Pakistan in protest at Monday's raid.
Many Pakistanis are angry at what they see as a US infringement of their country's sovereignty.
They are also critical of the government for allowing the commando operation to happen, although officials deny they were told about it.
Around 1,000 people had already gathered in central Abbottabad following Friday prayers, the AFP news agency reported.
They were setting fire to tyres, blocking a main road and shouting "Down, down USA!" and "Terrorist, terrorist, USA terrorist".
Anti-American sentiment appeared to be high at a similar protest in the south-western city of Quetta, the capital of Baluchistan province.
