Short Statement: This is a reinstated collection of information. Certain surveys and burden hours have been changed from the previous OMB clearance (No. 0925-0551). Specifically, a survey of "Careers in Science" requestors and focus groups of NIH curriculum supplement requestors were deleted due to reduced OSE staff. The burden hours for the Survey of NIH Curriculum Supplement customers was increased because there are now more people in this pool. The burden hours for the Teacher Workshop Short Follow-up Survey was also increased for this reason.
