Section 104(n), Public Law 480, the Library of Congress requests an appropriation for the fiscal

provide information of technical, scientific, cultural or educational significance in the
United States; to register, index, bind, reproduce, catalog, abstract, translate, and dis-
seminate books, periodicals, and related materials determined to have such significance; and
to acquire such books, periodicals, and other materials, and to deposit them in libraries and
research centers in the United States specializing in the areas to which ~-hsy relate.
