http://WhosoeverPress.com Boaz Alabama Publishing Company, Obtaining an LOC# for your book is quite easy. The LOC# is issued prior to publication, and is for books intended for distribution to libraries. It’s called the Preassigned Control Number (PCN) and may be requested simply by visiting http://pcn.loc.gov. You will be required to create an account, which is easy. Then, you simply request the LOC# (PCN#) by submitting the one-page application. Typically your number will arrive in your email inbox within ten days, but usually only takes a couple of days. Make sure you or your Publisher places the Library of Congress # on the Copyright page of your book. Once the book is printed, one complimentary copy needs to be mailed to the Library of Congress.
