Read from the source code; the running server may differ. Descriptions are the server’s own words; hidden characters are shown as [U+…].

find_libraries_near_address
Find the public library branches nearest to a US street address, sorted by distance. Args: address: Full US street address, e.g. "350 Fifth Ave, New York, NY" radius_miles: Search radius in miles (0.1–50, default 10) limit: Maximum branches to return (1–100, default 10) include_closed: Include temporarily-closed branches (default False)
find_libraries_near_coordinates
Find the public library branches nearest to a latitude/longitude, sorted by distance. Use this when you already have coordinates; it skips geocoding and is faster than find_libraries_near_address. Args: lat: Latitude (WGS84) lng: Longitude (WGS84) radius_miles: Search radius in miles (0.1–50, default 10) limit: Maximum branches to return (1–100, default 10) include_closed: Include temporarily-closed branches (default False)
get_library
Get the full profile for a library system by its FSCS ID, including collections, staffing, visits, programs, and finances. Args: fscs_id: IMLS FSCS ID for the library system, e.g. "IL0021"
get_outlet
Get the full record for one library branch (outlet) by its ID, including address, phone, coordinates, and service details. Args: outlet_id: IMLS outlet ID
get_state_summary
Get statewide public library totals — systems, branch outlets, collections, and usage — for one state. Args: state_code: Two-letter state abbreviation, e.g. "IL"
search_libraries
Search public library *systems* by name, state, and/or city. A system is the administrative entity (e.g. "Chicago Public Library") that operates one or more branch outlets. Provide at least one of name, state, or city. Args: name: Library system name (full-text search) state: Two-letter state code, e.g. "IL" city: City name (substring match) limit: Results per page (1–100, default 20) offset: Pagination offset (default 0)
