If the book has an U.S. copyright there's nothing to prevent the Library Of
Congress from recording the book if they wish to. Additionally, if the
book is marketed and sold in the U.S. there is nothing precluding Bookshare
from adding it to its library. There are other exceptions providing for
including books in either the L.O.C. or services like Bookshare, but it
would seem a bit pointless to go over them without more information about
the book in question.
