President Biden declared January 9 a national day of mourning, marking the formal announcement of Carter's death and setting the stage for his state funeral.
State funerals typically involve three stages: a service in Georgia, a ceremony in Washington, and a private burial in Plains, Georgia.
Flags will fly at half-staff for 30 days at federal locations, coinciding with Inauguration Day, honoring the legacy of President Carter.
The Carter Center invites the public to sign a condolence book and view tributes, reflecting the wide impact of the 39th President.
