*Description:*
What do you do when everything goes wrong?
Every library, museum, archive and historical society suffers disasters
from water leaks and mold to power and phone outages. Some are easy to
deal with, some are not. It's what you do about it and how quickly you
respond that determines the cost of a disaster to the museum and to the
community it serves. Learn about the importance of planning for these
disasters and how to design a recovery plan so that the disaster becomes
a change in routine.
Planning will focus on:
- Recovery of water damaged collections.
- Dealing with Mold and Indoor Air Quality issues
- Basics of insurance for collections and buildings.
- Recovery from physical damage to computers during a disaster.
- Proactive planning to recover automated systems and information services.
- Staffing issues before, during and after a disaster.
Written materials will be provided to assist with starting your disaster
response plan today.
Box lunches will be provided.
