Biblioteket er beliggende i Washington, DC, umiddelbart syd for højesteretsbygningen og ret sydøst for kongresbygningen. Samlingerne omfatter mere end 30 millioner katalogiserede bøger og andet trykt materiale på over 470 sprog, mere end 58 millioner manuskripter og en mængde aviser, film, kort og lydoptagelser. Biblioteket favner vidt: Alt udgivet i USA skal i princippet være der, men man finder også f.eks. nyere norsk kriminallitteratur.
Library of Congress er verdens næstestørste bibliotek. I tillæg til den store hovedbygning, opkaldt efter præsident Thomas Jefferson, er der bygget to omtrent lige så store sidebygninger (Adams- og Madisonbygningerne), og der findes også et stort fjernmagasin i Fort Meade nord for Washington. Biblioteket har udviklet sit eget klassifikationssystem, der består af såkaldte Library of Congress Control Numbers, som er organiseret efter, hvordan bogreolerne i magasinerne blev anlagt. Systemet er i brug ved universiteter og lignende over hele USA, men på offentlige biblioteker bruges Deweysystemet. Fra Wikipedia
