    INTERNET CONNECTION FOR MEDICAL INSTITUTIONS
    NIH GUIDE, Volume 26, Number 1, January 10, 1997
    PA NUMBER: PAR-97-023
    P.T. 15, 18; K.W. 1004017
    National Library of Medicine
    PURPOSE
    The National Library of Medicine (NLM) is encouraging the development of a communications infrastructure to promote the rapid interchange of medical information nationally and throughout the world. This infrastructure is based upon the Internet, a network of networks, that is a key element in important Federal initiatives in High Performance Computing and Communication (HPCC) and the National Information Infrastructure (NII). Internet access provides health professionals engaged in education, research, clinical care, and administration with a means of accessing remote databases, libraries, NLM's Internet Grateful Med, DOCLINE, and Loansome Doc, of transferring files and images, and of interacting with colleagues throughout the world. To accelerate the pace with which health-related institutions become part of the electronic information web, NLM is offering grants to support institution-wide Internet connections.
    HEALTHY PEOPLE 2000
    The Public Health Service (PHS) is committed to achieving the health promotion and disease prevention objectives of "Healthy People 2000,"a PHS-led national activity for setting priority areas. This Program Announcement (PA), Internet Connection for Medical Institutions, is related to the priority area of surveillance and data systems. Potential applicants may obtain a copy of "Healthy People 2000" (Full Report: Stock No. 017-001-00474-0 or Summary Report: Stock No: 017 001-00473-1) through the Superintendent of Documents, Government Printing Office, Washington, DC 20402-0325 (telephone 202-512-1800).
    ELIGIBILITY REQUIREMENTS
    Domestic, public and private, non-profit institutions engaged in health sciences administration, education, research, and/or clinical care are eligible to apply. "Health sciences" is defined as medicine, dentistry, nursing, public health, pharmacy, veterinary medicine, and other sciences related to health. Hospitals are encouraged to apply. Racial/ethnic minority individuals, women, and those with disabilities are encouraged to apply as Principal Investigators. Domestic applications may not have international components.
    Groups (or cooperatives) of health-related institutions are also eligible to apply. A single, lead institution must apply on behalf of the group.
    MECHANISM OF SUPPORT
    This PA uses the National Library of Medicine (NLM) Resource Grant (G08) mechanism. Indirect costs are not provided. Responsibility for the planning, direction, and execution of the proposed project will be solely that of the applicant. The total project period for an application submitted in response to this PA may not exceed one year.
    For a single institution, support is available up to $30,000; a group of institutions may receive up to $50,000 to support development of a multi-institution network including extending extant connectivity to outlying sites, or otherwise furthering NLM's goal of expanding information outreach. The overall cost of a connection to the Internet includes: gateway or router equipment, associated communication hardware (CSU/DSU), the leased line and its installation, local area network user support staff, and Internet Service Provider fees. The NLM grant is expected to support the purchase and installation of the gateway system and associated connection hardware, the cost of installation and leasing of communication circuits to connect to the Internet Service Provider, and the cost of Internet Service Provider fees. Institutions are expected to fund personnel, personal computers, and local area network costs. The emphasis of the Internet project should be towards initiating institution-wide Internet access; therefore, costs for website development are discouraged. Grant funds may be used to extend Internet access to other sites from an institution with an existing connection.
    OBJECTIVES
    Background
    The Internet currently is a collection of interconnected networks and comprises three types of networks: (1) a national backbone network, (2) regional networks (Internet Service Providers) usually based around some geographical region of the country, and (3) local networks at educational, research and clinical institutions. Individual institutions are connected to a regional network in the appropriate geographical area. The regional network is in turn attached to the high-speed national backbone network, usually at its network operation center. The backbone is connected to other national networks including the Defense Research Internet, NASA Science Network, and the Energy Sciences Network; these interconnected networks and many others worldwide comprise the Internet. The Internet provides electronic mail service and access to a variety of scientific resources including: digital libraries, unique databases such as MEDLINE via Grateful Med as well as a host of federal and private sector databases, supercomputers, and remote scientific sensing instruments. The Internet promotes interaction and collaboration with a single, well-integrated connection to end users using the Defense Data Network protocols: Transmission Control Protocol/Internet Protocol referred to as TCP/IP.
    Network management and operations services as well as information services are provided by each of the levels. The national backbone network provides for technical and information services to the Internet Service Providers which may provide technical expertise and information services, including training and documentation, to local network administrators. Local network officials provide technical and information services to the overall local network administration and may also provide consultative and liaison services to end-users of the network.
    Scope
    The purpose of this PA is to encourage U.S. medical institutions including medical research institutions, health science schools, hospitals, and professional organizations to connect to the Internet. Some institutions may belong to organizations that are already connected to the Internet, for example, medical schools adjacent to university campuses. In such a case, the NLM grant can be used by a health science school or hospital to link to an existing Internet connection. In other cases, the project will aid the institution in initiating a direct connection to the Internet Service Provider. In general, it is expected that institutions will use an existing local area network to distribute wide access to the Internet, or will build a new local area network and connect it to the Internet. A local area network is connected to the Internet by installing an IP router/gateway. This gateway will link the local area network to an appropriate Internet Service Provider by means of leased or dial-up communication circuits of varying speeds (9600 bits per second to 1.5 million bits per second). The resultant connections to the Internet provided by the gateway should be made widely available to all appropriate health professionals -- researchers, faculty, students, clinicians, and administrators. Ideally the institution will have installed a high-speed local area network and have adopted the TCP/IP protocols as the standard communication protocol. Where other networking protocols are used, the institution will be responsible for the installation of any additional network gateway systems required to resolve the protocol conversion issues so as to provide connectivity to the Internet gateway.
    APPLICATION PROCEDURES
    Applications are to be submitted on the grant application form PHS 398 (rev. 5/95) and will be accepted at the standard deadline dates (February 1, June 1 and October 1) as indicated in the instructions. Applications kits are available at most institutional offices of sponsored research and may be obtained from the Division of Extramural Outreach and Information Resources, National Institutes of Health, 6701 Rockledge Drive, MSC 7910, Bethesda, MD 20892-7910, telephone 301/435-0714, email: asknih@odrockm1.od.nih.gov; and from the program administrator listed under INQUIRIES.
    Supplemental Application Guidelines
    Applicants should not feel constrained by the emphasis on research in the language used by the forms. It may be useful for an applicant to read "project" whenever the form and instructions refer to "research". NLM considers these grants to be projects, not research applications, and will evaluate the applications in that spirit. NLM recommends that those writing the application keep the "project" concept in mind. Internet uses may support administration, education, research and/or patient care endeavors. Applicants are encouraged to include their health science library in the proposed Internet connection.
    "Biographical Sketch" form page (FF). Include computer, communications, networking skills, including TCP/IP experience, and Internet training.
    "Resources" form page (HH). Applicants are encouraged to substitute applicable headings such as computers, communications, and networking resources. For multiple institutions these must be described for each site. Letters of agreement or memoranda of understanding defining mutual responsibilities must be provided in the application and signed by authorized officials of each participating institution.
    In Section 9 of the "Research Plan" (read "Project Plan") also provide: 1) proposed benefits of Internet access to the targeted population; 2) plans for provision of institution-wide access, user training and user support and 3) plans for future support. The success of an Internet connection depends upon training users in establishing accounts and passwords and in teaching Internet capabilities. Describe user training plans including topics to be covered and the personnel who will provide the training and follow-up, ongoing training. Library involvement in user training is strongly encouraged. In regard to future support, the Internet Connection Grant is intended to provide seed money to initiate an Internet connection; therefore, plans for budgeting ongoing costs for Internet access must be described.
    All applicants, particularly those relatively unfamiliar with the application review form and with NIH procedures, are encouraged to consult Ms. Frances Johnson (address below) for assistance as needed in completing the application.
    Additional Application Procedures
    Each application must be identified by checking "YES" on Line 2 of the face page, and the number and title of this program announcement must be typed in Section 2.
    Submit a signed, typewritten original of the application, including the Checklist, and five legible, single-sided copies in one package to:

    AUTHORITY AND REGULATIONS
    The Resource Grant Program is described in the "Catalog of Federal Domestic Assistance" under Medical Library Assistance, Chapter 93.879. Grants will be awarded under the authority of the Public Health Service Act, Section 474(42 USC 286b-5) and administered under PHS grant policies and Federal Regulations, most specifically at 42 CFR Part 59a and 45 CFR Part 74. This program is not subject to the inter-governmental review requirements of Executive Order 12372 or Health Systems Agency review.
    The PHS strongly encourages all grant and contract recipients to provide a smoke-free workplace and promote the non-use of all tobacco products. In addition, Public Law 103-227, the Pro-Children Act of 1994, prohibits smoking in certain facilities (or in some cases, any portion of a facility) in which regular or routine education, library, day care, health care or early childhood development services are provided to children. This is consistent with the PHS mission to protect and advance the physical and mental health of the American people.
