IMLS awards tagged to California

Institute of Museum and Library Services as awarding agency, California as place-of-performance: 193 records summing to $60,465,331.66. An Institute of Museum and Library Services award coded outside CA is out. An award in California from a different awarding agency is out even if the topic sounds related.

Awarding agency 474 museum-versus-library splits stay unpublished on this California cell.

One hundred ninety-three records against $60,465,331.66 is a mid-thin IMLS file, thicker than the District’s 127-row cell and still not a library census. Unique recipients are unpublished. Do not read 193 as 193 unique museums, named libraries, or unique grants as institutions. The overlay Institute of Museum and Library Services in California is the both-keys table. California federal spending is the all-agency state hub. Institute of Museum and Library Services is the agency book without a CA filter. All spending ties lists other joins. Named systems are unpublished. Do not treat 193 as unique California libraries or as an LA-versus-Bay ranking. Correlation is not causation: California did not cause $60,465,331.66 by existing as a large or small place. Population and outcome scores are not packet facts. The join is 474 × CA only.

Not unique museums or named library systems

$60,465,331.66 does not measure unique museums, named libraries, or unique grants as institutions. Those series are not USAspending fields on this aggregate. The cell sums award obligations with awarding-agency code 474 and a CA place-of-performance tag. Awarding agency 474 museum-versus-library splits stay unpublished on this California cell.

Do not treat 193 awards as a census of unique museums, named libraries, or unique grants as institutions. Parent hubs are supposed to be larger than this pair. If California federal spending or Institute of Museum and Library Services matched $60,465,331.66 and 193, the join would be pointless. Use the overlay when both keys must stay on. Oregon, Nevada, and Texas IMLS joins are other pairs, not addends. Do not add this $60,465,331.66 to a District of Columbia IMLS join. They are different geography keys.
