About this award
The U.S. Department of Agriculture's Agricultural Research Service awarded a $31,842 firm fixed-price purchase order to the Association of Research Libraries (ARL), doing business as the Coalition for Networked Information, for annual institutional membership dues with the National Agricultural Library. The contract, awarded January 21, 2026, has a completion date of December 31, 2026, and carries no set-aside designation. The National Agricultural Library, the primary agricultural information resource of the United States and designated as a major research library, requires institutional membership with ARL to access publications, reports, training services, and participation in membership meetings focused on information policy and research library operations.
ARL is a nonprofit membership organization representing 127 research libraries across the United States and Canada that provides critical services to federal agencies in library science, research data management, and scholarly communication. This procurement followed a sources sought notice posted in December 2025 to assess market availability for the annual membership renewal requirement. The membership services facilitate institutional access, research support, and collaborative opportunities for the federal research library community, aligning with the USDA's mission to support agricultural research and information dissemination through strategic partnerships with leading research library networks.
