Cases Where ADDRESS = "M"

There were 60 cases where the variable ADDRESS was 'M'. 59 are given here. It appears likely from this example that M is yet another term for "missing" in some cases although by looking at ADDRES_M, these libraries do have addresses. (ADDRES_M was not collected in 1998, hence there are no values for that year.) The 60th was the 1995 case of De Witt Public Library, De Witt, Iowa (FSCSKEY IA0474) where the address was "505" a series of what must have been binary characters, then an "M". In converting the file to the CSV format, the apparent binary characters caused the data from this library to be gibberish and the ADDRESS was changed to De Witt PL's ADDRESS in the years before and after this year. This error appears in the original NCES data.

Here are those "Ms":
