Policy Research, Analysis, Data Collection, and Dissemination to collect data to extend and improve the Nation’s museum, library, and information services. This data collection is needed to identify museums that are currently or have plans to provide interactive experiences (exhibitions); afterschool, summer and other targeted programs, and food service operations that help fight childhood obesity.
