-----------------------------------------------------------------------
SUMMARY: NARA is giving public notice that the agency has submitted to

The public is invited to comment on the proposed information collection
pursuant to the Paperwork Reduction Act of 1995.
DATES: Written comments must be submitted to OMB at the address below
on or before December 7, 1998, to be assured of consideration.
ADDRESSES: Comments should be sent to: Office of Information and
Regulatory Affairs, Office of Management and Budget, Attn: Ms. Maya

FOR FURTHER INFORMATION CONTACT: Requests for additional information or
copies of the proposed information collection and supporting statement
should be directed to Tamee Fechhelm at telephone number 301-713-6730
or fax number 301-713-6913.
SUPPLEMENTARY INFORMATION: Pursuant to the Paperwork Reduction Act of
1995 (Pub. L. 104-13), NARA invites the general public and other
Federal agencies to comment on proposed information collections. NARA
published a notice of proposed collection for this information
collection on August 11, 1998 (63 FR 42882 and 42883). No comments were
received. NARA has submitted the described information collection to
OMB for approval.
In response to this notice, comments and suggestions should address
one or more of the following points: (a) whether the proposed
information collection is necessary for the proper performance of the
functions of NARA; (b) the accuracy of NARA's estimate of the burden of
the proposed information collection; (c) ways to enhance the quality,
utility, and clarity of the information to be collected; and (d) ways
to minimize the burden of the collection of information on respondents,
including the use of information technology. In this notice, NARA is
soliciting comments concerning the following information collection:
Title: National Archives and Records Administration Class
Evaluation Forms.
OMB number: 3095-0023.
Agency form number: NA Forms 2019A, 2019B, 2019C, and 2019D.
Type of review: Regular.
Affected public: Individuals or households, Business or other for-
profit, Nonprofit organizations and institutions, Federal, state,
local, or tribal government agencies.
Estimated number of respondents: 6,744.
Estimated time per response: 5 minutes.
Frequency of response: On occasion (when respondent takes NARA
sponsored training classes).
Estimated total annual burden hours: 562 hours.
Abstract: The information collection allows uniform measurement of
customer satisfaction with NARA training. NARA distributes the approved
forms to the course coordinators on diskette for customization of
selected elements, shown as shaded areas on the forms submitted for
clearance. NARA Form 2019A is used for courses having a single
instructor; Form 2019B is used for courses with two instructors team-
teaching, as is common in records management classes; and Form 2019C is
used for one-day courses with several topics that are taught by
different instructors or speakers, as is common with some archival and
genealogical workshops. These forms are distributed at the end of the
class for completion before the participant leaves. NARA Form 2019D is
used for courses held on multiple days with a variety of speakers or
instructors; this class format is used in the twice yearly Modern
Archives Institute and some genealogical courses. For these courses,
the daily evaluation form (NARA Form 2019D front) is distributed on a
daily basis so the student may provide a rating while the experience
with the material and instructor is fresh. The overall evaluation (NARA
Form 2019D back) is distributed at the end of the class. The enclosed
``Use of NARA Class Evaluation Form'' instructions identify the degree
of customization allowed on the forms.
Dated: October 27, 1998.
