Opportunity Summary:
The Park Museum Management Program Web Catalog Site opportunity is a National Park Service (NPS) cooperative agreement focused on maintaining and expanding the NPS Web Catalog, an online platform that has been available for nearly 13 years. The catalog is used by individual parks to give the public access to selected museum collection information, mainly textual museum records, along with any related digital images. The core purpose of the project is to strengthen public-facing access to NPS museum holdings by adding new participating parks and by publishing more curated content, such as collection highlights, individual objects, images, and other media. In addition to expanding content, the project also includes efforts to promote both the web and mobile versions of the catalog and to continue resolving data issues that affect the quality, consistency, and usability of the published records.
This funding opportunity (Funding Opportunity Number P14AS00301) was posted on August 27, 2014, with a closing date of August 31, 2014, and an archive date of September 30, 2014. The estimated total funding amount is $47,000, with one expected award. The instrument type is a cooperative agreement, which generally means substantial involvement by NPS is anticipated during the project, such as coordination on technical decisions, content selection priorities, data standards, and ongoing troubleshooting as materials are added or updated.
