>From SAM.gov -
By April of 2022, the federal government will stop using the DUNS number to uniquely identify entities registered in the System for Award Management (SAM). At that point, entities doing business with the federal government will use a Unique Entity Identifier (UEI) created in SAM.gov. They will no longer have to go to a third-party website to obtain their identifier. Active registrants will have their UEI assigned and viewable within SAM.gov; there is no action for registered entities to take at this time. This transition allows GSA to streamline the entity identification and validation process, making it easier and less burdensome for entities to do business with the federal government.


This is going to take some digging, but I think to get a UEI, libraries would just have to fill out a part of the SAM registration and not have to get into the financial part of it. Unless, of course, they were going to be getting federal funds directly.
