摘要

The National Library of Medicine (NLM) is 1 of 27 institutes and centers of the National Institutes of Health (NIH), an agency of the U.S. Department of Health & Human Services (HHS). The NIH Office of the Director sets policy and plans, manages, and coordinates NIH-wide programs and activities. Like all Federal agencies, NLM is required to comply with appropriations statutes when acquiring supplies and services with appropriated funds. An agency may obligate appropriations for goods and services when (1) the purpose of the obligation or expenditure is authorized, (2) the obligation occurs within the time for which the appropriation is available, and (3) the obligation and expenditure are within the amounts that Congress has established.
