Webinar on managing disaster planning documents

Webinar
"Managing Disaster Planning Documents"
Tuesday, May 1, 2012
10 am - 12 noon Central

The Galveston-Houston Area Alliance for Response in cooperation with
the Museum of Fine Arts, Houston will host a webinar for disaster
managers at museums, libraries and archives as part of the Heritage
Preservation MayDay initiative to protect cultural heritage.

Greg Gelberg, Business Applications Administrator at the J. Paul
Getty Trust, will present a PowerPoint program in which he will
explain how he organized the Getty's very extensive disaster and
recovery plans using a free (to non-profits) Atlassian software
product called Confluence. This Wiki-style software is used at the
Getty to manage all Disaster Preparation, Response and Recovery
documents throughout their system. Updating the documents is
facilitated by the software's connectivity; it converts existing
documents to fit the Confluence Program, is easily accessed and is
searchable, among other favorable traits. Greg will share several of
the documents and discuss strategies for developing a more
comprehensive set of plans that are scalable to any size
organization. This is an advanced stage of disaster planning but is
still useful for those just beginning to create their plans or
improving management of existing plans. There will be opportunity
for discussion between the participants and presenter.  Mr. Gelberg
does not represent Atlassian nor benefit financially from sharing
how the product is used at the Getty.
