We enjoyed meeting many people interested in developing a comprehensive disaster plan at the SC/MAC meeting this past weekend. We hope to have the entire plan available from our library’s web site by the end of this week. Issues that we discussed with colleagues who are responsible for disaster planning included the shelter-in-place procedure, how we handle acquiring and storing disaster supplies, how we developed partnerships with other health sciences libraries, and how the disaster planning blog is set up. Other topics included staff training for emergency response and how to develop signage and procedures for quick responses.
