<p><span style="font-family:"Arial",sans-serif"> We are pleased to share with you the full curriculum for
<em><span style="font-family:"Arial",sans-serif">Finding Common Ground: Collaborative Training for the Cultural Heritage and Emergency Response Communities</span></em>.  This program was developed by the Massachusetts Board of Library Commissioners (MBLC) in
 conjunction with the Massachusetts State Archives and the Massachusetts Department of Fire Services between 2017 and 2018. The project builds on a quarter century of the MBLC's statewide preservation and disaster response activities but is applicable in any
 region and any state with minor revision.<o:p></o:p></span></p>
<p><span style="font-family:"Arial",sans-serif"> Protecting humanities collections and municipal records is crucial to preserving our nation's story, sustaining the economy, and fostering resilience. This goal can only be accomplished by the cultural heritage
 community if communication and training with the emergency response community is already in place. By bringing both communities together to learn from each other at the local level, we can affect the inclusion of cultural heritage in municipal risk assessment,
 mitigation planning, response to, and recovery from a disaster. It is time that both communities come together to recognize that once life safety has been addressed following a disaster, the health and welfare of a community depends on the recovery and vitality
 of all sectors, including cultural heritage.<o:p></o:p></span></p>
<p><span style="font-family:"Arial",sans-serif"> To address these issues at the local level and to serve as a pilot at the national level,
<em><span style="font-family:"Arial",sans-serif">Finding Common Ground: Collaborative Training for the Cultural Heritage and Emergency Response Communities</span></em> was developed through a two-year National Endowment for the Humanities grant to provide statewide,
 preparedness and response training project for cultural heritage and emergency responder personnel. The training package is available on the MBLC website at
