Abstract: To administer the IMLS processes of grants and cooperative agreements, IMLS uses standardized application forms, guidelines and reporting forms for eligible libraries, museums, and other organizations to apply for its funding. These forms submitted for public review in this Notice are the Program Information Sheet, the Budget Form spreadsheet, and the Digital Product Form. This collection of information from these forms are a part of the IMLS grant application process. Beginning in FY2020, IMLS will implement the eGMS (Electronic Grants Management System) currently developed and utilized by the National Endowment for the Humanities. Two forms which will replace the Program Information Sheet have been included for review. These forms, along with the common SF-424, will form the basis for IMLS grant applications automatically transmitting data into the eGMS system. This action is to renew the forms and instructions associated with all the Notice of Funding Opportunities for the next three years.
