Discretionary Grant Performance Report

Instructions for Submitting Interim and Final Reports
The Cover Sheet must include the signature of an official authorized to submit grant
certifications on the part of the reporting institution. In most cases this will be the Authorized
Organizational Representative (AOR). All components of each report package must be
submitted together. Your report may be submitted in any one of three ways:
• Reports of 20 pages or less, including Cover Sheet and attachments, may be sent
electronically to imlsreporting@imls.gov. If the Report is submitted electronically, the
Cover Sheet as signed by the authorized official must be scanned, formatted as a PDF file,
and sent in the same electronic mailing as the body of the report. If this method is used,
the grantee is required to maintain the document with the original signature for three years,
in case it is required to resolve a question. If report attachments include text or images,
and high-quality versions can be transmitted electronically, include them in a single
electronic mailing with the Cover Sheet and Performance Report. Web-based material
must be provided on disk or in hard copy, so reports that include this component
must be mailed to Grants Administration, as below.
• Reports of 20 pages or less, including Cover Sheet and attachments, may be faxed to 202653-4604. If this method is used, the grantee is required to maintain the document with
the original signature for three years, in case it is required to resolve a question. If report
attachments include text or images, and high-quality versions can be transmitted by fax,
include them in a single transmission with the Cover Sheet and Performance Report.
Web-based material must be provided on disk or in hard copy, so reports that
include this component must be sent to Grants Administration as below.
• Reports of more than 20 pages, including Cover Sheet and attachments, and reports
of any length that include Web-based material among attachments should be sent with
the original signed Cover Sheet to:
