The following list of uncataloged Latvian telephone directories in the Library of Congress collection is arranged chronologically, then by city or region. Many of the directories cover the entire country in one volume. The type of directory is indicated by the words "Residential" listing home addresses of individuals, or "Organizational" for directories that list businesses, institutions, and government offices, or "Both" listing home addresses as well as businesses, institutions, and government offices. The list indicates when the directories are in Russian, and whether the Latvian names are written with Cyrillic letters.
The uncataloged directories for Latvia featured in this guide are located on Deck 5S of the closed stacks in the Adams Building and readers must request the items in the Main Reading Room or the European Reading Room. For more information about requesting items at the Library, please see the Using the Library of Congress section in this guide.
