Wait, if a book isn't copyrighted, it's not eligible for inclusion in the LoC? How does that make any sense at all?

  Yeah, that's false.

  The act of copyrighting a book includes depositing a copy with the Library of Congress. The LoC used to accept all submissions; now it only accepts submissions filed pursuant to a copyright.
