Notes

1. ^¹At various times, Bobinski and Jones disagree on these numbers. In these cases, Jones' numbers have been used due to both a more recent publication date and a more detailed gazetteer of branch libraries, which is often where the discrepancies occur.
2. ^Grants for multiple libraries (Detroit) are listed only by their total amount, not broken down for each branch.
