The Disaster Preparedness Working Group will bring together invested participants from throughout the Library to prepare a disaster plan that is specific to our Library's staffing, collections, building, computer facilities, and available campus resources. This plan will include a risk assessment, identification of available resources, recovery procedures, an updated vendor listing, and staff training procedures in addition to other sections as determined by the working group. A schedule for updating the disaster plan sections will also be included.
