submitted 124 years ago by ch. 1301 to r/title-2-THE-CONGRESS · 93 words · no verdicts yet

in plain englishAI-generated · not legal advice

The Librarian of Congress may sell copies of the Library's card indexes and other publications. This applies only to copies the Library doesn't need for its own work. The price must cover cost plus 10 percent, and the money funds future catalog cards and publications.

This law lets the Librarian of Congress sell copies of the Library's card catalog indexes and other publications. Any institution or individual who wants to buy copies can do so. But the Librarian may only sell copies that aren't needed for the Library's own ordinary business. The price the Librarian charges must cover the actual cost of the copies, plus 10 percent added on top. All the money collected must be deposited in the Treasury. It gets credited to the appropriation that pays for preparing and distributing the Library's catalog cards and other publications.
