Entities that are classified under this section of the code are taxed on unrelated business income as defined by IRS regulations. The System had no unrelated business income for the years ended December 31, 2023 and 2022, respectively. Accordingly, no provision for income taxes is made in the financial statements.The System follows the provisions of Accounting for Uncertainty in Income Taxes under the Income Taxes Topic of the Codification. This requires the evaluation of tax positions, which includes maintaining its tax-exempt status and the taxability of any unrelated business income and does not allow recognition of tax positions which do not meet a more-likely-than-not threshold of being sustained by the applicable tax authority. Management does not believe that it has taken any tax positions that would not meet this threshold. The Systems information returns are subject to possible federal examination, generally for three years after they are filed. true Berkshire Free Library PO Box 151 Berkshire NY 13736 160993212 5331 0 LLSA, SPECIAL PURPOSE, MINI GRANT Candor Free Library PO Box 104 Candor NY 13743 156020296 5121 0 LLSA, SPECIAL PURPOSE, MINI GRANT Cortland Free Library 32 Church Street Cortland NY 13045 150569362 13276 0 LLSA, SPECIAL PURPOSE Edith B Ford Memorial Library POB 410 7169 Main Street Ovid NY 14521 150625873 5016 0 LLSA, SPECIAL PURPOSE, MINI GRANT Groton Public Library 112 East Cortland Street Groton NY 13073 150618030 6089 0 LLSA, SPECIAL PURPOSE, MINI GRANT Phillips Free Library PO Box 7 Homer NY 13077 150532226 7470 0 LLSA, SPECIAL PURPOSE, MINI GRANT Seneca Falls Library 47 Cayuga Street Seneca Falls NY 13148 166075457 5308 0 LLSA, SPECIAL PURPOSE Seymour Public Library Dist 176-178 Genesee Street Auburn NY 13021 161460484 16360 0 LLSA, SPECIAL PURPOSE, MINI GRANT Tompkins County Public Librar 101 East Green Street Ithaca NY 14850 161098211 36673 0 LLSA, SPECIAL PURPOSE Waterloo Library & Historical 31 E William Street Waterloo NY 13165 150532265 6153 0 LLSA, SPECIAL PURPOSE, MINI GRANT 10 0 Grantmaker's Description of How Grants are Used LOCAL LIBRARY SERVICE AID (LLSA), CENTRAL LIBRARY DEVELOPMENT AID (CLDA) AND OUTREACH MINI-GRANTS ARE PASS-THROUGH AID FROM NEW YORK STATE.
