DEPARTMENT OF HEALTH AND 

HUMAN SERVICES 

National Institutes of Health 

Submission for OMB Review; 

Comment Request; Generic Clearance 

To Conduct Voluntary Customer/ 

Partner Surveys 

Summary: Under the provisions of 

Section 3507(a)(1)(D) of the Paperwork 

Reduction Act of 1995, the National 

Library of Medicine (NLM), the National 

Institutes of Health (NIH) has submitted 

to the Office of Management and Budget 

(OMB) a request to review and approve 

the information collection listed below. 

This proposed information collection 

was previously published in the Federal 

Register on March 30, 2009 (Vol. 74, No. 

59, Pg. 14137) and allowed 60-days for 

public comment. One public comment 

was received. The purpose of this notice 

is to allow an additional 30 days for 

public comment. The National Institutes 

of Health may not conduct or sponsor, 

and the respondent is not required to 

respond to, an information collection 

that has been extended, revised, or 

implemented on or after October 1, 

1995, unless it displays a currently valid 

OMB control number. 

Proposed Collection: Title: Generic 

Clearance To Conduct Voluntary 

Customer/Partner Surveys. Type of 

Information Collection Request: 

Extension. OMB Control No. 0925–0476, 

with an expiration date of July 31, 2009. 

Need and Use of Information Collection: 

Executive Order 12962 directed 

agencies that provide significant 

services directly to the public to survey 

customers to determine the kind and 

quality of services they want and their 

level of satisfaction with existing 

services. Additionally, since 1994, the 

NLM has been a ‘‘Federal Reinvention 

Laboratory’’ with a goal of improving its 

methods of delivering information to the 

public. An essential strategy in 

accomplishing reinvention goals is the 

ability to periodically receive input and 

feedback from customers about the 

design and quality of the services they 

receive. The NLM provides significant 

services directly to the public including 

health providers, researchers, 

universities, other Federal agencies, 

State and local governments, and to 

others through a range of mechanisms, 

including publications, technical 

assistance, and Web sites. These 

services are primarily focused on health 

and medical information dissemination 

activities. The purpose of this 

submission is to obtain OMB’s generic 

approval to continue to conduct 

satisfaction surveys of NLM’s 

customers. The NLM will use the 

information provided by individuals 

and institutions to identify strengths 

and weaknesses in current services and 

to make improvements where feasible. 

The ability to periodically survey NLM’s 

customers is essential to continually 

update and upgrade methods of 

providing high quality service. 

Frequency of Response: Annually or 

biennially. Affected Public: Individuals 

or households; businesses or other for 

profit; State or local governments; 

Federal agencies; non-profit institutions; 

small businesses or organizations. Type 

of Respondents: Organizations, medical 

researchers, physicians and other health 

care providers, librarians, students, and 

the general public. The annual reporting 

burden is as follows: Estimated Number 

of Respondents: 27,910. Estimated 

Number of Responses per Respondent: 

1. Average Burden Hours per Response: 

0.129 and Estimated Total Annual 

Burden Hours Requested: 3,607. The 

annualized cost to respondents is 

estimated at $23,126. There are no 

Capital Costs, Operating Costs, and/or 

Maintenance Costs to report. 

Request for Comments: Written 

comments and/or suggestions from the 

public and affected agencies should

proposed collection of information is 

necessary for the proper performance of

burden of the proposed collection of 

information, including the validity of
