Library of Congress Prints and Photographs Online Catalog

The Library of Congress Prints and Photographs Online Catalog (PPOC) compiles records of printed and photographic material housed in the Library of Congress collections. The Prints and Photographs division has its roots in 1897, and reflected the scope of Library of Congress collections having increased drastically over the last century from books to a wide variety of graphic materials. The division’s online catalog, searchable in Eight Centuries, contains over 1.4 million records describing material in the collection, including links to full text in many cases.
