ACTION: Notice.
NARA is proposing to request
that the Office of Management and
Budget (OMB) reinstate a discontinued
information collection and renew three
other information collections. The
reinstated information collection is used
by companies and organizations that
want to digitize archival holdings with
privately-owned equipment. The first
renewal information collection is
prepared by organizations that want to
make paper-to-paper copies of archival
holdings with their personal copiers at
the National Archives at the College
Park facility. The second renewal is
used to advise requesters of (1) the
correct procedures to follow when
requesting certified copies of records for
use in civil litigation or criminal actions
in courts of law, and (2) what kinds of
information they must provide NARA so
the agency can find those records. The
third renewal information collection is
used when veterans, dependents, and
other authorized individuals request
information from or copies of
documents in military personnel,
military medical records, and
dependent medical records. We invite
you to comment on this proposed
information collection.
DATES: We must receive written
comments on or before May 19, 2023.
