Instructor: Michelle Malizia, Associate Director NN/LM SCR

Date: October 9, 2009, 9:00 am – 11:00 am

Course Description:

Emergencies affecting libraries go beyond hurricanes and tornadoes. Is
your library prepared for a leaky pipe, fire, flood, pandemic flu or
other emergency event?

Designed to provide beginning level training in emergency preparedness
for librarians in medical libraries and information centers, the class
consists of an informative and engaging PowerPoint presentation,
interspersed with several interactive portions. Participants will learn
how to conduct a basic risk assessment for their libraries, how to craft
a basic emergency preparedness plan, strategies for continuing library
services from off-site, and options for obtaining assistance, both
web-based resources and via the NN/LM Emergency Preparedness & Response
structure. This is a 2-hour class.
