As best I can tell, you only need to send two copies of a book to the Library of Congress if you want to get an LCCN. Otherwise, there's no requirement to do so, certainly not to receive copyright protection.
- jedberg 8y agoThat's true, but basically every publisher does it because they want an LCCN. I suppose if you self publish you don't have to. But the bigger point is that to be in the archive you have to bear some of the cost.
