    Proposed Project: Collection of Publication Assessment 
Information--New--National Center for Injury Prevention and Control 
(NCIPC), Centers for Disease Control and Prevention (CDC).
    This project will collect information from Internet users after 
they order or download a publication from the Web site of the 
Department of Health and Human Services/Centers for Disease Control and 
Prevention/National Center for Injury Prevention and Control. NCIPC 
produces a variety of publications about injury prevention for a range 
of audiences, from public health professionals to the general public. 
Publications include reports to Congress, fact books, brochures, 
research articles, tool kits, and books. Most of these publications are 
available to the general public, and the chief distribution method is 
through the NCIPC Web site, http://www.cdc.gov/ncipc. On the Web site, 
people can order print copies or view electronic copies of the 
publications.
    It is critical for NCIPC to obtain feedback from users of their 
publications so it can better understand who uses them and how. This 
will help guide the development of future publications, revisions of 
current ones, as well as distribution of publications. As part of the 
effort to gain understanding about the audiences of NCIPC publications, 
we will collect information through a Web-based form. NCIPC Web site 
users will have the opportunity to fill out the form after ordering, 
downloading, or reading online publications through the Web site. The 
form contains questions about the demographic background of the users, 
how they found the Web site, how they plan to use the publication, 
their need for publications in other languages, the degree to which the 
publication offerings were useful to them, and space for their general 
comments. The results of the forms will be compiled and studied so 
NCIPC can better consider the needs of people who use the publications 
in future publication development, revisions, and distribution plans. 
There are no costs to respondents.
