**An LCCN does not guarantee that your book will be accepted to the Library of Congress catalog; it only offers the opportunity to be considered. The Library of Congress does not provide acceptance or rejection notification. To find out if your book has been cataloged, we suggest occasionally checking the Library of Congress Online Catalog.
**An LCCN can only be assigned to books that have not been previously published. After you have approved your proof, your book is no longer eligible to begin this service. |
