Nominations may be in the form of a

representative of the organization. The 

Department of Labor encourages you to 

include additional supporting letters of 

nomination. The Department of Labor 

will not consider self-nominees who 

have no supporting letters. 

Nominations, including supporting 

letters, should: 

• State the person’s qualifications to 

serve on the Council (including any 

particular specialized knowledge or 

experience relevant to the nominee’s 

proposed Council position); 

• state that the candidate will accept 

appointment to the Council if offered;

registered lobbyists. Anyone currently 

subject to federal registration 

requirements as a lobbyist is not eligible 

for appointment. Nominees should be 

aware of the time commitment for 

attending meetings and actively 

participating in the work of the Council. 

Historically, this has meant a 

commitment of at least 20 days per year.

NATIONAL ARCHIVES AND RECORDS 

ADMINISTRATION 

[NARA–2021–040] 

Draft FY 2022–2026 Strategic Plan 

AGENCY: National Archives and Records 

Administration (NARA). 

ACTION: Invitation to comment. 

SUMMARY: We have posted our new draft 

Strategic Plan and are inviting feedback 

from staff, public and Government 

customers, stakeholders, and colleagues 

in the archival, historical, and records 

management communities. 

DATES: Please provide your feedback by 

August 20, 2021. 

Location: You can view the draft 

Strategic Plan in two places: On our 

website at http://archives.gov/about/ 

plans-reports/strategic-plan/draftstrategic-plan and on GitHub at https:// 

usnationalarchives.github.io/strategicplan. You can submit feedback on 

GitHub or by email to strategy@

nara.gov. 

FOR FURTHER INFORMATION CONTACT: 

Carla Patterson, Director, Strategy and 

Performance Division, National 

Archives and Records Administration; 

8601 Adelphi Road, College Park, 

Maryland 20740, by email at strategy@

nara.gov, or by telephone at 301 837– 

0993. 

SUPPLEMENTARY INFORMATION: The draft 

plan reaffirms our current Mission, 

Vision, Values, Transformational 

Outcomes, and Strategic Goals (see 

Strategic Plan (FY 2018–FY 2022) at 

https://www.archives.gov/about/plansreports/strategic-plan). The draft plan 

updates the agency’s strategic objectives 

to focus agency resources on improving 

equity, providing a world-class 

customer experience for all customers, 

and using our experiences during the 

pandemic to accelerate agency 

modernization. 

Our draft Strategic Plan commits to 

new outreach to traditionally 

underserved communities and to work 

with these communities to identify the 

records in our holdings that are most 

important to them. Once identified, 

we’ll prioritize those records for 

archival processing and describing, 

digitizing, and accessing online. We’re 

at the beginning of a process to build 

new relationships with underserved 

communities, and this draft plan reflects 

our intent to maintain and foster those 

relationships over time. 

The draft Strategic Plan also 

revitalizes our customer service 

activities by addressing the entire 

customer experience. We’ve proposed 

agency-wide objectives to better 

understand customer needs and 

expectations and modernize services 

and communications channels. These 

objectives will drive cross-agency 

activities to provide a unified, 

responsive experience for customers 

across all of our services lines. 

And finally, the draft Strategic Plan 

challenges our programs and agency 

records management functions to 

continue modernizing activities that we 

started during the COVID–19 pandemic. 

We recognize that making more of our 

work processes electronic and online 

will allow us to fulfill more of our 

mission remotely, making the agency 

more resilient over time. We also 

commit to modernizing our records 

management policies to keep pace with 

changes in how Federal agencies create 

and manage a new generation of 

electronic records. 

All Federal agencies must issue a new 

Strategic Plan every four years. We 

shared this draft plan with National 

Archives employees on July 28 and are 

now sharing the plan with stakeholders 

and the public for comment. 

We’ll collect and consider feedback, 

and then revise and share the draft plan 

with the Office of Management and 

Budget by September 13. We’ll publish 

the final Strategic Plan in February 2022 

and it will become the agency’s official 

plan for fiscal years 2022 through 2026.

Management Officer, 400 7th Street SW, 

Room 4060, Washington, DC 20506, 

(202) 606–8322; evoyatzis@neh.gov. 

SUPPLEMENTARY INFORMATION: The 

purpose of the meeting is for panel 

review, discussion, evaluation, and 

recommendation on applications for 

Certificates of Indemnity submitted to 

the Federal Council on the Arts and the 

Humanities, for exhibitions beginning 

on or after October 1, 2021. Because the 

meeting will consider proprietary 

financial and commercial data provided 

in confidence by indemnity applicants, 

and material that is likely to disclose 

trade secrets or other privileged or 

confidential information, and because it 

is important to keep the values of 

objects to be indemnified and the 

methods of transportation and security 

measures confidential, I have 

determined that the meeting will be 

closed to the public pursuant to 

subsection (c)(4) of section 552b of Title 

5, United States Code. I have made this 

determination under the authority 

granted me by the Chairman’s 

Delegation of Authority to Close
