An Institute of Museum and Library Services award coded outside DC is out. An award in District of Columbia from a different awarding agency is out even if the topic sounds related.

Museum-versus-library splits are unpublished.

One hundred twenty-seven records against $61,947,398.33 is a thin IMLS file. A DC tag can mark headquarters place of performance, not a local library census. Unique recipients are unpublished.

District of Columbia federal spending is the all-agency state hub. Institute of Museum and Library Services is the agency book without a DC filter. All spending ties lists other joins.

Not unique museums, named libraries, or unique grants-as-institutions

$61,947,398.33 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 DC place-of-performance tag. Awarding agency 474 is the IMLS parent. Museum-versus-library splits are unpublished.
