We are just completing the first formal disaster plan for the research
resources (library, archives, study centers). With this in place, the
curatorial departments will then adapt the plan for their needs, and then
all other departments will use it. While the document is being completed,
we're developing training sessions and creating supply carts. The plan could
not have arrived at this point without great coordination with the
departments of security, operations and conservation.
