The University of Mary Washington, a contracting organization in Virginia, awarded contract PCO05431841-V2 to University of Pennsylvania Press on September 4, 2026. The primary deliverable consists of twenty copies of "Coffee Nation" procured for a public program at the James Monroe Museum, with delivery directed to Heaton Meadows. The books were ordered through the University of Pennsylvania Press as the publisher and are designated for resale under exemption B15. The contract carries a cumulative value of $559, comprised of $540 for the books and $19.29 in other costs.

This government-to-government acquisition represents a discrete transaction for educational and public programming purposes. The contract documentation includes supporting receipts and email correspondence evidencing the procurement through the publisher. Given the modest contract amount and limited scope of deliverables, this arrangement reflects a straightforward purchasing transaction typical of institutional library and museum operations within Virginia's higher education sector.
