14.7 Replacing Federal Publications Damaged Or Destroyed In A Disaster

When disaster strikes your depository, many decisions MUST be made about replacing damaged or destroyed publications. If only a few publications have been damaged, it may be relatively easy to replace them. However, if the disaster damaged or destroyed a large portion of your depository collection, you MUST plan for replacement or treatment of damaged publications in consultation with your parent institution, the insurance company or other funding agencies, the regional depository, and LSCM.
