Notice of Proposed Information Collection Requests: IMLS Grants for Local History Notice of Funding Opportunity The Institute of Museum and Library Services (IMLS), as part of its continuing effort to reduce paperwork and respondent burden, conducts a pre-clearance consultation program to provide the general public and Federal agencies with an opportunity to comment on proposed and/or continuing collections of information in accordance with the Paperwork Reduction Act. This program helps to ensure that requested data can be provided in the desired format, reporting burden (time and financial resources) is minimized, collection instruments are clearly understood, and the impact of collection requirements on respondents can be properly assessed. The purpose of this notice is to communicate the agency's intent to request clearance for a new IMLS grant program (the final name is to be determined) designed to support small history museums, small historical societies, and small historic houses/sites that celebrate and preserve America's history and values, with an emphasis on amplifying the stories of their local communities.
