II. Current Actions
This Notice proposes the clearance of
the 2028–2032 IMLS Grants to States
Program Five-Year State Plan
Guidelines for State Library
Administrative Agencies. The Grants to
States program is the largest grant
program administered by IMLS,
providing financial assistance to
develop library services throughout the
states, U.S. territories, and the Freely
Associated States. Using a population
based formula, around $180 million is
distributed among the State Library
Administrative Agencies (SLAAs) every
year. SLAAs are official agencies
charged by law with the extension and
development of library services, and
they are located in:
• Each of the 50 states of the United
States, and the District of Columbia;
• The territories (the Commonwealth
of Puerto Rico, the U.S. Virgin Islands,
Guam, American Samoa, and the
Commonwealth of the Northern Mariana
Islands); and
• The Freely Associated States (the
Republic of the Marshall Islands, the
Federated States of Micronesia, and the
Republic of Palau).
Each year, approximately 1,500
Grants to States projects support the
purposes and priorities outlined in the
Library Services and Technology Act.
(See 20 U.S.C. 9121–9165) SLAAs may
use the funds to support statewide
initiatives and services, and they may
also distribute the funds through
competitive subawards (e.g., subgrants
or cooperative agreements) to public,
academic, research, school, or special
libraries or library consortia (for-profit
and Federal libraries are not eligible).
Each SLAA must submit a plan that
details library services goals for a fiveyear period. (20 U.S.C. 9134). SLAAs
must also conduct a five-year evaluation
of library services based on that plan.
These plans and evaluations are the
foundation for improving practice and
informing policy. Each SLAA receives
IMLS funding to support the five-year
