*A Safe & Healthy Building
*Have you ever wondered where the hazardous places and environments are
in your library? How will you deal with these dangers? How will you
protect your collections and your patrons? Learn about surveying your
building as a preliminary step toward good indoor air quality. Learn
where the potential hazards are for your older patrons and for your
patrons with disabilities.
This workshop will cover two related topics: Indoor Air Quality and
Working with Disabled patrons. The first part will provide an overview
of the needs of disabled and elderly patrons and how ADA requirements
affect cultural institutions, looking at both the physical facility and
such basic requirements as ramps and accommodations, to programmatic
areas such as accessible exhibits and events. The second part will look
at surveying your building for potential indoor air quality problems as
well as security and safety risks.
