Physical processing and MA EA and 3 more items

EBSCO Industries Inc has been awarded a contract by George Mason University in Virginia, with an award date of September 17, 2026. The contract encompasses library services valued at $998, consisting of physical processing and materials handling services as well as e-book cataloging services. Deliverables are directed to GMU Purchasing and include 112 units of physical processing and materials handling at $3.03 per unit, 126 units of e-book cataloging services at $2.42 per unit, and an additional 117 units of physical processing and materials handling (56 units plus 61 units) at $3.03 per unit.

The contract represents George Mason University's procurement of specialized library support services to enhance its collection management and digital resource accessibility. The prime contractor, EBSCO Industries Inc, will deliver these cataloging and physical processing services to support the university's library operations. The modest contract value reflects what appears to be a transactional order for discrete library support services rather than a comprehensive service agreement.
