The Institute of Museum and Library Services (IMLS) is closed due to a partial shutdown of the United States Government. While eGMS Reach remains functional, IMLS staff will not be able to review or respond to any form of communication nor process any payment or change requests until the agency is reopened. During the funding hiatus, IMLS will not process discretionary payment requests.
