SUPPLEMENTARY INFORMATION: The
Institute of Museum and Library
Services is the primary source of federal
support for the nation’s libraries and
museums. We advance, support, and
empower America’s museums, libraries,
and related organizations through grant
making, research, and policy
development. Our vision is a nation
where museums and libraries work
together to work together to transform
the lives of individuals and
communities. To learn more, visit

Current Actions: This Notice proposes
the clearance of Evaluation of the
Reopening Archives, Libraries, and
Museums (REALM) Project research
study. The 60-day Notice was published
in the Federal Register on October 16,
2020 (85 FR 65878). The agency
received one comment in response to
this Notice.
The REALM Project is convening
individuals from Institute of Museum
and Library Services (IMLS), OCLC Inc.
(OCLC), Battelle, and several key actors
in the libraries, archives, and museums
(LAM) fields to bring their expertise and
on-the-ground experience together to
develop science-based information
about how materials can be handled to
mitigate COVID–19 exposure to staff
and visitors of LAM institutions as
COVID–19 restrictions begin lifting
across the country. This project extends
the guidance available from the Centers
for Disease Control and Prevention
(CDC) by providing information that is
specifically relevant to LAM
institutions. Given that LAM
institutions work with physical
materials that are often circulated
among the public, LAM institutions
have unique concerns about how they
can optimize their operations while
minimizing the potential for spreading
the Coronavirus. This evaluation will be
focused on understanding the extent to
which the professionals from LAM
institutions have found that the REALM
Project’s research test results and toolkit
resources have met their needs. Data
will be collected through a survey of
organizations that have used the test
results and toolkit developed by the
REALM project and focus groups
representing members of the museum
and archive community who have not
been engaged with the project. The
evaluation is intended to provide
information to OCLC and IMLS around
the usefulness of the scientific
information shared to the LAM
community as well as the effectiveness
of its distribution. The evaluation has
E:\FR\FM\18MRN1.SGM
18MRN1
Federal Register / Vol. 86, No. 51 / Thursday, March 18, 2021 / Notices
not been designed to be a retrospective
consideration of the REALM Project, but
rather to inform decision-makers at
OCLC and IMLS, in near real-time, as to
what is working and what is not
enabling them to modify the efforts of
the project’s Working Groups and
Steering Committee as well as to adjust
methods of distribution of information
to the larger LAM community.
