SUPPLEMENTARY INFORMATION: Pursuant to the Paperwork Reduction Act of

    We will summarize any comments you submit and include the summary 
in our request for OMB approval. All comments will become a matter of 
public record.
    In this notice, we solicit comments concerning the following 
information collection:
    Title: Volunteer Service Application and Voluntary Internship 
Application.
    OMB number: 3095-0060.
    Agency form numbers: NA Form 6045 (Volunteer Service Application) 
and NA Form 3060A, Voluntary Internship Application.
    Type of review: Regular.
    Affected public: Individuals or households.
    Estimated number of respondents: 1,000.
    Estimated time per response: 25 minutes.
    Frequency of response: On occasion.
    Estimated total annual burden hours: 416 hours.
    Abstract: We use volunteer resources to enhance our services to the 
public and to further our mission of providing ready access to 
essential evidence. Volunteers assist in outreach and public programs 
and provide technical and research support for administrative, 
archival, library, and curatorial staff, as well as other programs. We 
use a standard form for volunteers to apply and to assess the 
qualifications of potential volunteers. Members of the public who are 
interested in being a NARA volunteer use NA Form 6045, to signal their 
interest and to identify their qualifications for the work. Once we 
have selected someone as a volunteer, they fill out NA Form 6045a, 
Standards of Conduct for Volunteers, NA Form 6045b, Volunteer or Intern 
Emergency and Medical Consent, and NA Form 6045c, Volunteer or Intern 
Confidentiality Statement.
    In addition to Pathways internships, NARA also uses voluntary 
(unpaid) interns to create a pipeline; bring fresh perspectives and 
ideas; and serve as NARA brand ambassadors. This opportunity provides 
interns with training, experience, and skills that will prepare them 
for their careers; and prepares participants for future employment with 
NARA. Engaging interns also involves the use of NA Form 3060A, 
Voluntary Internship Application to collect information for intern 
qualifications. Upon selection, applicants fill out the NA Form 3060, 
Voluntary Internship Agreement, as well as the other forms listed 
above.

Executive for Information Services/CIO.
