Product Details
A library should be prepared to restore services as quickly as possible in the aftermath of a disaster. Helping a community return to normalcy as quickly as possible requires planning and adaptability to the crisis at hand. The faster the response, the faster a sense of normalcy returns for individuals and businesses in the community. This webinar will introduce you to new disaster response and recovery tools adopted from Emergency Management that will help librarians rebound from disasters quickly and restore library services more rapidly than ever.
During this webinar you will learn:
- The concept of situational awareness.
- Why the majority of your disaster tools and templates still must be completed before a disaster
- An introduction to the Incident Action Plan
