Field Guide to Emergency ResponseEntry/Object ID
2011.002.051Description
Useful to staff at any cultural institution in planning for and responding to emergencies, especially
those involving collections. The spiral-bound book describes phases of response, duties of response team members, and basic salvage techniques for common problems resulting from a disaster (such as water, mold, mud, and corrosion). A DVD (located in the book’s back pocket) with over one hour of content provides advice from professionals about salvage operations,
demonstrates salvage techniques, and is handy in conducting training for staff or recovery volunteers. Tabbed forms provide space to note key emergency contacts, utility shut-off locations, salvage priorities, insurance information, and recovery supply needs.
Use this resource to: respond to a collections emergency; train volunteers; review salvage techniques.
