AGENCY:
SUMMARY: The Institute of Museum and
Library Service (IMLS) as part of its
continuing effort to reduce paperwork
and respondent burden, conducts a preclearance 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 of 1995 (PRA95)
[44 U.S.C. 3506(c)(2)(A)]. 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.
Currently the Institute of Museum and
Library Services is soliciting comments
concerning a study to promote
improved workforce planning including
strategies for recruitment and retention
of workers in the LIS field. In particular,
the study aims to collect current and
projected employment in terms of
numbers of positions (filled and vacant),
functional specialization, educational
requirements, skill/competency
requirements, salaries and benefits,
demographics, annual budget/
expenditures, constituency or market
size. Information to be collected from
LIS professionals includes current
employment, career path and career
progression, professional association/
union membership and demographics.
DATES: Written comments must be
submitted to the office listed in the
ADDRESSES section below on or before

collection of information is necessary
for the proper performance of the
functions of the agency, including
whether the information will have
practical utility;
• Evaluate the accuracy of the
agency’s estimate of the burden of the
proposed collection of information,
including the validity of the
methodology and assumptions used;
• Enhance the quality, utility, and
clarity of the information to be
collected; and
• Minimize the burden of the
collection of information on those who
are to respond, including through the
use of appropriate automated electronic,
mechanical, or other technological
collection techniques or other forms of
information technology, e.g., permitting
electronic submissions of responses.
