This law caps pay for certain Library of Congress jobs. If a position's pay is boosted by an honorarium, the combined total cannot go above the maximum salary the law allows.

Some Library of Congress positions receive extra pay called an honorarium, paid from money that was not appropriated by Congress, under the terms of section 162 of this title. This section limits how high the total pay for such a position can go. The position's gross salary cannot be set at an amount that, combined with the honorarium, would exceed the maximum salary allowed under chapter 51 and subchapter III of chapter 53 of title 5.
