been learned from recent hurricanes. Based on the first-hand experiences of
their colleagues, this class provides an opportunity for institutions in
hurricane-prone areas to examine their level of planning and preparedness,
specifically hurricane readiness and response. Having a realistic,
functional plan is critical to successful response and recovery. There are
steps that institutions can take now (regardless of the size of the staff or
the annual budget) that can help guarantee the best possible outcome. Taught in
three two-hour sessions, this class will use the successes and failures of
institutions that have faced a region-wide disaster as the starting point to
examine the specifics of hurricane readiness. Topics will include building
preparation, collection considerations, staff readiness, and what to expect if
a hurricane strikes your institution. |
