Workshop on disaster preparedness

Disaster Preparedness and Response Workshops

Disasters happen everyday. What if a flood or fire strikes your
collection? Will you be ready? See how disasters have affected
libraries and archives and what actions are necessary to preserve
your institution's collection. Remember, the first 18-36 hours are
crucial to the preservation of your collection. Learn to write a
disaster plan for the immediate actions you must take. Be prepared
for a disaster by taking a two day workshop at one of the following
locations.
