Gregor Trinkaus-Randall presented at the Archivists Round Table of New York Symposium yesterday, October 7th: Session 4. Preparing Emergency and Cultural Resources Personnel to Respond During and Following a Disaster When disaster strikes, is your cultural institution prepared to respond? Do you already have a disaster plan in place? This session includes specialist experts in the area of disaster preparedness who work with cultural institutions to respond during emergencies, providing guidance and instruction. Presenters will cover what should be included in a disaster plan (steps to take, chain of command, who to contact, etc.), educating responders, response and recovery activities, project management, treatment protocols, fundraising and budgetary concerns. Topics will include the Martha Graham Dance Studio Archives that suffered damage during Hurricane Sandy, the 2011 Massachusetts tornado and Hurricane Irene.
