America’s Living Library Act establishes a pilot program to collect genomic data from species in National Park System units.

The America’s Living Library Act establishes a pilot program called the America’s Living Library Project. The program aims to collect new genomic data from species found in units of the National Park System. The Secretary of the Interior, through the Director of the United States Geological Survey, will oversee the program. The project will involve collecting, cataloging, and sequencing samples from animals, plants, fungi, and microbes. The collected samples will be stored in natural history collections and germplasm repositories.
