Proposed Project

    Outcomes Data Collection of the National Prevention Information 
Network--New--National Center for HIV, Hepatitis, STD, and TB 
Prevention (NCHHSTP), Centers for Disease Control and Prevention (CDC).

Background and Brief Description

    The National Center for HIV, Hepatitis, STD, and TB Prevention 
(NCHHSTP) within the Centers for Disease Control and Prevention (CDC) 
proposes a survey data collection to assess the CDC National Prevention 
Information Network's (NPIN) Web site, products and services. The CDC 
NPIN serves as the U.S. reference, referral, and distribution service 
for information on HIV/AIDS, STDs, TB and viral Hepatitis. Products and 
services offered by the CDC NPIN Web site is the primary channel used 
by the CDC to provide information concerning prevention, treatment, and 
care of HIV, STD, TB, and viral Hepatitis to its prevention partners, 
stakeholders, and other constituents.
    The CDC NPIN Web site includes several searchable databases that 
can be used to locate information about testing centers, funding 
opportunities, upcoming conferences, educational materials, and news. 
The Web site is a widely used service by the public, with more than 54 
million hits and 3 million visits recorded since August 2004. Following 
enhancements to the website completed in February 2006, 22,886,855 hits 
and 1,349,318 visits have already been recorded from February to 
November 2006. In addition to the Web site, consumers can access 
information

[[Page 56764]]

and order materials and resources by phone using the NPIN toll-free 
reference and referral line or electronic mail system. As of January 
25, 2007, over 370,000 unique requests for materials have been logged 
and 4,561,186 materials have been ordered by the public.
    The primary purposes of the proposed data collection are to assess 
CDC NPIN users' satisfaction and perceived quality with the Web site, 
products, and services; determine the extent to which the users' needs 
are being met; and identify how the Web site, products, and services 
can be enhanced to meet the needs of the user.
    The evaluation will be accomplished by survey data collection from 
users of the CDC NPIN Web site and users of CDC NPIN products and 
services. Organizations that do not have access to the Internet will be 
administered the survey by phone.
    The estimated 5,655 respondents include representatives from 
government agencies, community-based organizations, advocacy 
organizations, and various other organizations involved in the 
prevention and/or treatment of HIV/AIDS, STDs, TB, and/or viral 
Hepatitis.
    There are no costs to respondents other than their time. The total 
estimated annual burden hours are 2,525.
