No children are allowed in the Library of Congress.
It's not that kind of library.
In other words...
You are being lied to
again
Everything published in the US is copied to the Library of Congress; appropriateness for children is not a criteria. Published under copyright is.
In order to read something in the Library of Congress, you must, in order:
1) Be 16+ years old and in possession of ID such as a driver’s license or passport to obtain a LoC card
2) Make an appointment to go to a reading room
3) Know what it is you want to read and which library building it is in so you can fill out a request form when you arrive.
So the chances of a “child” just stumbling over something “inappropriate” that was “put” there by the choice of the head librarian is 100% impossible.
Leavitt seems to believe that if she wears a big enough cross, God can’t hear her breaking the commandment against false witness.
