The Library of Congress is updating its rules for taking photos on Library premises. The new rules create a permit process for organized photo sessions (like engagement photos or professional portraits) and clarify what types of photography require special permission. This affects photographers, tourists, researchers, and event planners who want to photograph at the Library of Congress. Casual snapshots are still fine, but staged or professional shoots now need a permit.
