Opportunity Summary:
The National Park Service (NPS) funding opportunity titled "Developing NPS Museum Managment Guidance and Educational Materials" (Funding Opportunity Number P14AS00195) is a discretionary cooperative agreement in the cultural resources area. Its purpose is to continue ongoing work on core museum guidance and public-facing educational content tied to NPS collections. In practical terms, the project centers on developing and updating the NPS Museum Handbook and creating or refreshing educational products that highlight items and stories preserved in NPS museum collections. These products are described as including lesson plans, virtual museum exhibits, and a range of educational and social media materials intended to make NPS collections more accessible and useful for learning.
This notice is not a competitive call for proposals. Instead, it serves as a public announcement that NPS intended to fund specific project activities without full and open competition. The original and current closing date listed is July 29, 2014, and the posting/creation date is July 24, 2014. Because it is not a request for applications, the date functions more as an administrative timeline for the notice rather than a deadline for submitting new proposals.
The funding instrument is a cooperative agreement, which typically implies substantial involvement by the NPS in the project work, coordination, or technical input as the activities move forward. The opportunity is associated with CFDA number 15.945, Cooperative Research and Training Programs - Resources of the National Park System. No cost sharing or matching requirement is indicated. The listing shows estimated total funding and award ceiling/floor as 0, which generally suggests that specific dollar amounts were not provided in the public notice (or were handled through internal or separate documentation rather than published as a typical competed grant amount).
Eligibility is limited to private institutions of higher education, signaling that the intended partner for this work was expected to be a private college or university capable of supporting museum guidance development, research, writing and editing, and production of education-oriented materials. For additional details, the notice points to Grant.gov and provides a contact for access issues: Rita Mihalik, Financial Assistance Officer, at 301-663-1481 x5 and ritamihalik@nps.gov.
