Address/Telephone Directories from Latvia
at the Library of Congress

Cover of Latvijas PSR rajonu uznemumu, iestazu un organizaciju telefonu abonentu saraksts, 1977

The Library of Congress maintains a large collection of retrospective foreign and domestic telephone directories, although most of these are not cataloged. (More specialized directories for commerce, industry and specific professions are indeed cataloged and may be identified in the Library's online catalog.) The uncataloged directories listed below reflect holdings of Latvian telephone directories prior to the year 2000. Some of the directories are in Russian or print Latvian in the transliterated Cyrillic letters mandatory for many publications during Soviet rule, and those cases are noted within the entry. Otherwise, the directories are in standard Latvian employing roman letters. The arrangement is generally chronological, except for the last six entries, which are specialized directories.
