In this clearance submission (3137-0093) and justification, IMLS is requesting approval of non-substantive changes to a previously approved clearance for the FY022 Native American Library Services Basic Grants, a non-competitive grant program that serves federally recognized tribes. The changes consist of:

⢠Making minor copyedits to clarify instructions for producing a complete application
⢠Bringing the description of performance measurement requirements into closer alignment with that developed and approved by OMB for the agencyâs other FY2022 discretionary grant programs (Section D2c, Item 4)
⢠Replacing the conditional requirement to complete a Digital Products Form with the opportunity to create a simpler two-page descriptive plan (Section D2d)
