The Librarian of Congress identifies a poet he'd like to serve as Poet Laureate, confirms that the poet is willing and able to serve as Poet Laureate, and then appoints the poet to the position.

Arch Hades is an artist and bestselling poet from London, who became the highest paid living poet in the world in 2021.

The poet laureate is typically appointed between June and August, and his or her official term typically lasts from September to April. The poet laureate may be appointed to a second term by the Librarian of Congress. Two consecutive terms is considered the maximum length of a poet laureate's tenure.

By tradition, the Poet Laureate receives a barrel of wine, often referred to as the 'butt of sack' or the 'butt of canary wine' – now its modern equivalent, a barrel of sherry. The gift had been discontinued since 1790 but was reinstated in 1984 at the appointment of Ted Hughes.

The poet laureate is paid an annual $35,000 stipend, as well as an additional $5,000 for travel. This salary is not paid for by the U.S. government; it's funded by a private gift from philanthropist and poet Archer M. Huntingdon.

The state poet laureate position is an honorary position typically created by a bill passed by the state's legislature that designates the State Arts or Humanities Council to recommend nominees for the state poet laureate position, and the Governor the authority to appoint a citizen of the State as State Poet Laureate.

Currently, the poet laureate receives a $60,000 annual stipend, endowed by a gift from Archer M. Huntington. On October 3, 1985, the U.S. Congress passed legislation authored by Senator Spark M. Matsunaga of Hawaii changing the title of the position to Poet Laureate Consultant in Poetry.
