NIGP 93948: Library Machines and Supplies, Maintenance and Repair

NIGP 93948 Library Machines And Supplies, Maintenance And Repair is an Item code that covers library collection materials, digital resources, cataloging and processing services, and physical library equipment such as book returns and carts. State and local governments use this code to procure print books, audiobooks, e-books, digital content licenses, shelf-ready processing with barcoding and MARC records, and durable library furnishings and machinery. Issuing bodies include school districts, municipal library systems, and county governments. Dallas Independent School District has posted multiple RFPs for library print, e-books, and digital resources to support PK-12 curriculum and equitable access on a district-wide, as-needed basis; the City of Brownsville, Texas has solicited library collection materials and services for the Brownsville Public Library System; and Hillsborough County Board of County Commissioners has solicited library book returns with carts. School districts lead recent activity, with Dallas ISD replacing a prior contract (TJ-206442) and explicitly encouraging vendors previously awarded on that contract to respond to new solicitations, signaling ongoing reliance on qualified incumbents.

Recent procurement activity is concentrated in Texas, with Dallas ISD and Brownsville posting RFPs in August and early September 2026 and Hillsborough County (Florida) posting an ITB in July 2026. Dallas ISD RFP RR250363, due September 10, 2026, requires vendors to meet Small Business Enterprise (SBE) compliance with an aspirational goal of 30 percent of total contract value and up to 20 percentage points of evaluation score allocated to SBE participation; certification may come from the Small Business Administration, Texas Department of Transportation, Women's Business Council Southwest, or approved regional certification authorities. The three-year term includes two successive one-year renewal options, not to exceed five years total. Dallas ISD RFP RR250347, due August 27, 2026, specifies delivery directly to schools within 30 days of purchase order receipt in Dewey order, with approved vendors for shared-use facilities including Ingram, Baker and Taylor, Midwest Tape, and Recorded Books. Hillsborough County's ITB 2600317, due July 24, 2026, sought 50 Kingsley Brand C-Series Book Returns with carts (estimated value $171,080) delivered to John F. Germany Public Library in Tampa within 30 days of purchase order receipt.
