Renovation of a library in Brandon, Mississippi. Completed plans call for the renovation of a library.

This notice to bidders is for services to be subsidized under the Universal Services E-Rate Program for Schools and Libraries. The notification of obligation to complete this project will be the issuance of a CMRLS Purchase Order. E-rate funding does not obligate the library. If library funds are not available for the library portion, all contracts will become null and void and the project will not be implemented. The project is contingent upon available e-rate and library funds. The successful vendor shall invoice the Library and USAC following successful delivery and installation of the equipment. The successful vendor will bill USAC for the discounted portion of the service and the Library for the non-discounted portion.
