The AJL Institute for Judaica Librarianship is offeringÂ…Â…..
A 4.5-hour CEU course at the 2010 AJL convention in Seattle, WA
Co-sponsored by the AJL Professional Development and Continuing
Education Committee and the University of Wisconsin-Madison/Extension
Preparing for the inevitable: Disaster planning and response
Instructor: Gary L. Menges, Preservation Administrator, University
of Washington Libraries, Seattle, Washington
Gary teaches "Preservation and Conservation of Library Materials" in
the UW Information School and has presented workshops for WESTPAS and
other libraries on the West Coast.
The course will cover prevention, risk assessment, preparation
(including developing a template for a plan), response, assessment of
damage, recovery and working with emergency recovery services,
salvage techniques, and insurance.
A Pocket Response Plan for Collections (PReP Plan) will be
sent to registrants upon registration. They will be asked to
identify institutional and utility contacts, a disaster team, first
responders, and emergency services for their institution. A cover
memo will accompany the PReP plan. It is not expected that
participants will have completed the plan, but this assignment will
provide the framework for discussion.
The course will be given in 3 sessions on Monday, July 5, 2010
8:30- 10:00AM, 10:30-12:00 noon, and 1:45-3:15PM
Tuition is $45.00
AJL and the University of Wisconsin-Madison/Extension will award a
0.5 CEU certificate to each participant if he/she is a current paid
up AJL member and is present for the entire 4.5 hours of instruction.
