Panelists will discuss their experiences and how creating response plans has changed the outcome of disasters – from working with a variety of different types of institutions to create emergency plans, to dealing with mold outbreaks (whether recurrent or discovered in a recent donation), to adapting an institution’s disaster response manual to address new concerns about collection storage and technology. How has your institution responded to the threat of disaster and what challenges have you encountered? The presenters encourage the audience to share their experiences.Item University of Maryland Libraries: Digital Preservation Policy(2014-01-07) Knies, Jennie Levine; Pike, Robin C.; Archer, Joanne; Novara, Vincent J.; Montori, CarlaThe University of Maryland (UMD) Libraries, in keeping with its mission “To enable the intellectual inquiry and learning required to meet the education, research and community outreach mission of the university,” serves as a trusted caretaker of the UMD Libraries’ collections, including those in digital format.
