Grants to States — CFDA 45.310

Grants-to-states obligations at $475.6M

USAspending.gov records $475,570,159.03 in obligations under CFDA 45.310. Those 166 awards produce that stock. A simple average is about $2.86 million per award. That average is a quotient of two packet totals, not a typical award and not a unit cost for libraries funded, books purchased, or broadband hours delivered. Other Institute of Museum and Library Services listings under different CFDA numbers are not mixed into the $475,570,159.03.

The assistance-listing title is GRANTS TO STATES. CFDA 45.310 is the identifier. Read the $475.6M headline — $475,570,159.03 in the award file — as the obligation book tagged 45.310 only. USAspending.gov assistance awards are the source. This page does not convert obligations into outlays or into a count of libraries funded, books purchased, or broadband hours delivered.

166 awards on 60 state-level recipients

60 recipients share 166 awards. That is about 2.8 award records per recipient on average. Splitting $475,570,159.03 evenly would assign about $7.93 million per recipient. That density is a packet quotient, not a typical grant size and not a cost per unit of libraries funded, books purchased, or broadband hours delivered. The packet does not list the 60 named organizations. Read $475,570,159.03 only against CFDA 45.310.

Fifty-nine jurisdictions cover states, territories, and extra coded entities. Grants-to-states dollars follow administering state library agencies, not equal shares of library buildings. Place-of-performance amounts, if shown, live on the program table. Recipient count is organizational, not a census of libraries funded, books purchased, or broadband hours delivered. A simple average is about $2.86 million per award. Combining 45.310 with other Institute of Museum and Library Services listings under different CFDA numbers would invent a combined total this packet does not contain.

Award rows are not a library census

Among assistance listings, 45.310 is a near-formula state-agency file: 166 awards against 60 named organizations spanning 59 jurisdictions. Award count is a weak proxy for “number of projects” and a worse proxy for libraries funded, books purchased, or broadband hours delivered. The recipient field (60 recipients) tells you how many named organizations sit on the extract; awards (166) tell you how many assistance rows were stored.

The packet does not report libraries funded, books purchased, or broadband hours delivered. Citing 166 as that unit would be a unit error. Keep the units straight: dollars, awards, recipients, jurisdictions. The $475,570,159.03 stock is the obligation figure from USAspending.gov. Sixty recipients across 59 jurisdictions is a state-agency formula fingerprint.

Obligations versus Grants to States outlays

The $475,570,159.03 is an obligation total from USAspending.gov. Outlays — cash paid against Grants to States awards — are not in the packet. A file can show a large obligation stock while draws, reimbursements, or closeouts follow a different schedule. Deobligations and upward adjustments both move the total. Treasury outlays are a separate series.

Use CFDA 45.310 to size this listing in the assistance file. Do not use it as a dashboard of libraries funded, books purchased, or broadband hours delivered. Those series live elsewhere. This page reports the obligation book tagged 45.310. The $475.6M figure is the compact form of $475,570,159.03.

What the 45.310 tables omit

Geographic coding covers 59 jurisdictions. Fifty-nine jurisdictions cover states, territories, and extra coded entities. Grants-to-states dollars follow administering state library agencies, not equal shares of library buildings. It is not a library catalog, not a museum grant total, and not a count of public-library outlets. Series that never appear as assistance awards will not show up in the $475,570,159.03.

Place-of-performance on 59 jurisdictions is a coding field. Read the program page before treating those cells as equal shares of Grants to States funding. Recipient dollars, if shown on the hub, are still obligation amounts, not cash already paid.
