[[Page 19904]]

Background

    The Institute of Museum and Library Services is an independent 
Federal grant-making agency authorized by the Museum and Library 
Services Act, Public Law 104-208, as amended. The IMLS provides a 
variety of grant programs to assist the nation's museums and libraries 
in improving their operations and enhancing their services to the 
public. Museums and libraries of all sizes and types may receive 
support from IMLS programs.
    The Museum and Library Services Act, 20 U.S.C. Section 9101, et 
seq. authorizes the Director of the Institute of Museum and Library 
Services to make grants to museums and other entities as the Director 
considers appropriate. In addition, the National Museum of African 
American History and Culture Act (the ``Act'') authorizes the Director 
of the Institute of Museum and Library Services to establish grant and 
scholarship programs to improve operations, care of collections, and 
development of professional management of African American museums 
throughout the country, and to establish grant programs with the 
purpose of providing internship and fellowship opportunities at African 
American Museums. See, generally, 20 U.S.C. Section 80r-5(b). The 
Institute's new Program is developed pursuant to the provisions of this 
Act.

I. The National Museum of African American History and Culture Act 
Authorizes the Institute To Develop, Among Other Things, the Following

    (A) A grant program with the purpose of improving operations, care 
of collections, and development of professional management at African 
American museums;
    (B) A grant program with the purpose of providing internship and 
fellowship opportunities at African American museums. 20 U.S.C. 80r-
5(b). Pursuant to this authority, IMLS proposes the program of grants 
to support and enhance African American museums throughout the country.
    IMLS received comments that the program guidelines support the 
current needs of the African American museum community and also reflect 
the needs of museums generally. IMLS was urged to monitor the program's 
implementation to measure systematic change and to consider the program 
as a test bed to develop approaches appropriate to improving operations 
within other museum communities. IMLS agrees that the program has the 
potential to effect systematic change and will plan effective 
monitoring and evaluation strategies.
    IMLS received questions about the eligibility criteria. IMLS has 
revised the criteria to clarify eligibility status.
    The need for technical assistance, particularly for the smaller 
museums, was noted. IMLS agrees and will extend to this program the 
types of technical assistance provided to potential applicants in other 
IMLS programs.

II. Current Actions

    To administer this program of grants, IMLS must develop application 
guidelines.
