In 1897, the Library moved to its own building across the street from the Capitol. Today, three buildings hold the library's collection.
1897年，图书馆移至它自己的大楼内，与国会大厦隔街相望。如今，三幢建筑收藏着图书馆的藏品。
The Library of Congress provides books and materials to the United States Congress. It also lends books to other American libraries, government agencies and foreign libraries. It buys some of its books and gets others as gifts. It also gets materials through its copyright office. Anyone who wants copyright protection for a publication must send two copies to the library. This means the Library of Congress receives almost everything published in the United States.
国会图书馆为美国国会提供书籍和资料。它还向美国其他图书馆，政府机构和外国图书馆提供借书服务。它自己买一部分书，也得到别人的一些赠书，还通过自己的版权局获取。在美国，要取得出版物的版权保护都必须向该图书馆赠送两册书。这意味着国会图书馆几乎可以获得在美国出版的任何东西。
