    Title: SNAP-Ed Connection Recipe Finder Sharing and Review Form.
    OMB Control Number: 0518-0043.
    Summary of Collection: The National Agricultural Library's SNAP-Ed 
Connection (formerly the Food Stamp Nutrition Connection), http://www.snap.nal.usda.gov) resource system developed an on-line recipe 
database, the Recipe Finder in Fiscal Year 2005. The purpose of the 
Recipe Finder database is to provide our target audience, Supplemental 
Nutrition Assistance Program Education (SNAP-ED) providers, with low-
cost, easy to prepare, healthy recipes for classes and demonstrations 
with SNAP-Ed participants. We rely on these same educators to submit 
their best recipes to us for review, analysis and posting in the 
database. Data collected using the ``SNAP-Ed Connection Recipe Review 
Form'' will help identify a recipe's eligibility for inclusion in this 
database. Data collected using the SNAP-Ed Connection Recipe Review 
Form will help identify the success or value of the recipe during use 
with SNAP-Ed participants.
    Need and Use of the Information: The voluntary ``SNAP-Ed Connection 
Recipe Submission Form'' allows SNAP-Ed providers the opportunity to 
submit recipes on-line and saves contributors time and money in 
photocopying and mailing/faxing recipes. SNAP-ED staff reviews 
submissions to determine for appropriateness and eligibility for 
inclusion into the Recipe Finder database. The voluntary ``SNAP-Ed 
Connection Recipe Submission Form'' allows SNAP-Ed providers and other 
Recipe Finder users the opportunity to review recipes on-line and share 
their feedback, including recipe photographs, with other Recipe Finder 
users. Failure of the SNAP-Ed Connection to this information would 
inhibit the ability of the target audience to participate in a valuable 
resource that will assist them and in turn the SNAP-Ed participants.
    Description of Respondents: Individual or households; Not-for 
Profit Institutions; State, Local or Tribal Government.
    Number of Respondents: 250.
    Frequency of Responses: Reporting: Annually.
    Total Burden Hours: 30.
