obtained by contacting the individual listed below in the ADDRESSES 
section of this notice.

DATES: Written comments must be submitted to the office listed in the 
addressee section below on or before June 7, 2015.

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.

Planning, Research and Evaluation, Institute of Museum and Library

SUPPLEMENTARY INFORMATION: 

I. Background

    The Institute of Museum and Library Services is the primary source 
of federal support for the Nation's 123,000 libraries and 35,000 
museums. The Institute's mission is to inspire libraries and museums to 
advance innovation, learning and civic engagement. The Institute works 
at the national level and in coordination with state and local 
organizations to sustain heritage, culture, and knowledge; enhance 
learning and innovation; and support professional development. IMLS is 
responsible for identifying national needs for and trends in museum, 
library, and information services; measuring and reporting on the 
impact and effectiveness of museum, library and information services 
throughout the United States, including programs conducted with funds 
made available by IMLS; identifying, and disseminating information on, 
the best practices of such programs; and developing plans to improve 
museum, library and information services of the United States and 
strengthen national, State, local, regional, and international 
communications and cooperative networks (20 U.S.C. Chapter 72, 20 
U.S.C. 9108).

II. Current Actions

    The intention of the Museum Locator Tool is to support IMLS's 
ongoing effort to provide accurate information about currently 
operating museums throughout the United States. While IMLS has 
collected a wide range of data about museums across the country and has 
cleaned and enhanced this data over time, the museum locator provides 
an easy-to-use tool for members of the public interested in accessing 
museum information and providing input to the list of museums on a 
voluntary basis. The Museum Locator Tool will provide an opportunity 
for the public to identify museums via a keyword search or by 
navigating an easy-to-use map. Members of the public will also be able 
to provide input by identifying museums in their area that may not be 
listed or by providing additional information for museums they have 
identified within the tool. The Museum Locator Tool will include an 
``Add a Museum'' function that allows viewers to enter an institution 
that is not in the data base and provide: Institution name, street 
address, city and state, zip code, phone number, URL, and hours of 
operation. There will also be an ``Update a Museum'' function that will 
allow viewers to update the same institution fields: Institution name, 
street address, city and state, zip code, phone number, URL, and hours 
of operation.
    The Museum Locator Tool is not a statistical collection and the 
data gathered from this tool will not be used for statistical 
reporting. Rather, it is provided as a service to members of the public 
who are interested in accessing current data on US museums and who 
would like to contribute to an open and ongoing public resource. The 
tool will provide APIs for developers to access the data in real time 
and data downloads for people who care to access data from the tool in 
batch form.
    Agency: Institute of Museum and Library Services.
    Title: Museum Finder Tool.
    OMB Number: To Be Determined.
    Frequency: N/A.
    Affected Public: The target populations for the tool are museum 
professionals and members of the public interested in museum services.
    Estimated Number of Respondents: 500.
    Estimated Average Burden per Response: The burden per respondent is 
estimated to be an average of 5 minutes based on the size of the input 
form.
    Estimated Total Annual Burden: 42 hours.
    Total Annualized capital/startup costs: n/a.
    Total Annual costs: To be determined.
    Public Comments Invited: Comments submitted in response to this 
notice will be summarized and/or included in the request for OMB's 
clearance of this information collection.

of Planning, Research and Evaluation, 1800 M St. NW., 9th Floor, 
Washington, DC 20036.
