It is checked to ensure that the identifier is the proper length and has the correct initial digits. LCCN is a character string 8–12 characters long. The length of the LCCN dictates the character type of the initial 1–3 characters; the rightmost eight are always digits.<ref>{{cite web |url=https://www.loc.gov/marc/lccn-namespace.html#syntax |title=The LCCN Namespace |website=Network Development and MARC Standards Office |publisher=[[Library of Congress]] |date=November 2003}}</ref> {|class="wikitable" |+ LCCN format description !

To resolve this error, ensure that the {{para|lccn}} value is correct and that there are no other letters, punctuation, or other characters. When receiving this error, be on the lookout for publishers who omitted leading zeros in the LCCN following the two or four digit year. For example, an LCCN that is [https://catalog.loc.gov/vwebv/search?searchCode=LCCN&searchArg=92035247&searchType=1&permalink=y properly 92-035427] could be shortened in the printed work to [https://books.google.com/books?id=3ocPU-S9gloC&q=35247 92-35247]. When experimenting with inserting omitted zeroes, cross-check the finished number against the LCCN permalinks online.
