[OPLINLIST] Disaster Preparedness Workshop @ MOLO

[Chris Hopkins]

Planning to Prevent Disasters and How to Manage Disasters When They Do
Occur


Thursday, August 28, 2003

1:00 PM  to 4:00 PM
MOLO Regional Library System Training Center, New Philadelphia, OH

Scheduled Speaker:  Jan Haines, State Library of Ohio, and Dave Mezack,
Clermont County Public Library

Registration is limited to  40

The dust has settled, the water has subsided, or the smoke has
dissipated. Now what? Disasters can strike at any time and place. Having
a staff that knows what to do before, during and after such an event can
help lessen panic and enable everyone to work together toward an
organized recovery. Dave Mezack, Operations Coordinator, Clermont County
Public Library and Jan Haines, Library Development Consultant, the State
Library of Ohio will discuss the steps you can take in advance to lessen
the potential effects of disasters on your libraries. Assessing your
facilities, the necessary elements of a good plan and technology issues
are some of the areas that will be addressed to help you prepare
effective responses now - while you're not in a crisis. Whether your
library is working on a disaster preparedness plan or has one in place,
we encourage you to attend and share your experiences during the later
portion of this workshop when Susan Hagloch, Director of Tuscarawas
County Public Library; Dan Suvak, Director of Walsh University Library;
Jean Kindry, Director of Canal Fulton Public Library, and Kent Oliver,
Director of Stark County District Library, offer roundtable discussion
on their plans.
