Summary

Library of Congress Modernization Act of 2016 This bill authorizes the Library of Congress to purchase, maintain, or replace reproducers for books published either in raised characters, on sound-reproduction recordings, or in any other form (currently limited to reproducers of sound-reproduction recordings) for the use of the blind and for other physically disabled U.S. residents. The bill establishes the Library of Congress National Collection Stewardship Fund, whose amounts may be used directly for preparing collection materials for long-term storage.
