or fax to: 202-707-1334

For the above CDS phone numbers, our two Customer Support staff will answer your calls, and if they are occupied with another customer, you may leave a message. We make every effort to respond either the same day or the next working day to those voice messages.

To help expedite your inquiries, we recommend the following:
For general inquiries, problems, or other questions - call us, send a fax, or email to cdsinfo@loc.gov.
For orders - send by fax or email to cdsinfo@loc.gov..
For payments - send your credit card number by phone or use Electronic Fund Transfers whenever possible. Please note that checks, money orders, etc. sent to our postal address will be delayed a minimum of 5-7 work days due to the Capitol Hill security screening of all mail.
For starting Web services (Class Web, Cataloger's Desktop) and MARC Distribution Services - sign up on the CDS Website, http://www.loc.gov/cds/.
