First, I have attached a list of RI town names for you to
create the drop down list. Have we also removed all other states from the
State selection for the RI plan so there is no confusion (only listing RI, no
other states)
In the printed version:
2.6 ADVANCE WARNING – EMERGENCY PREPARATIONS
This section describes precautions to be taken if you have
advance warning of an emergency (e.g., hurricane, flood, wildfire). The events
that you have indicated pose the greatest risk to your institution are listed
first.
ADD: We cannot
urge strongly enough that precautions include building a prior relationship with
local emergency responders (e.g. fire department) and a local or regional
conservator. Acquaint them with your mission, your staff, your
collection, and your building. This preventive outreach costs nothing but
your time.
On http://ri.dplan.org/inst/about.asp
and http://ri.dplan.org/inst/about.asp?verifymode=1
ADD: Above the box for GPS Coordinates Coordinates are based on data from Google(TM) Maps.
ADD after Type of Institution line:
Institution Code: (box)
Enter LORI Code (if you have one) or XTC
for Clerk, XHP for Historical or Preservation Society, XMU for Museum, XHS for
Historic Site, or XST for State Agency.

2.9.3 Prepare for Recovery of
Collections
• Get advice from a
preservation professional. Unless the disaster is very small, it is likely
that you will want to contact a
preservation professional to ensure that you are responding
properly. In the event of a major
disaster, you may need to arrange for a professional to
provide on-site assistance.

D.7
Professional Preservation Advice – Conservators
It is
essential to establish an ongoing relationship with a conservator in your
region or community
before
a disaster occurs. Even if an emergency damages collections that are outside
that conservator’s
area of
expertise, he or she can direct you to qualified colleagues, and may be able to
assist
them.
To access the most up-to-date list of
conservators, go to the OLIS Disaster and Preservation Sources website at: http://www.olis.ri.gov/services/preservation/index.php.
If you
need to locate additional preservation/conservation assistance, see the American
Institute
for
Conservation (AIC) conservator database at http://aic.stanford.edu/. This
link points you to
guidelines for choosing
a conservator; the link to the database is at the end of the document.

2.9.3 Prepare for Recovery of
Collections
• Determine whether it will be
necessary to relocate collections, either to dry them
or to store them temporarily to
protect them from danger while the building and damaged
collections are salvaged. We urge you to assess frequently (at least
once a year) possible sites in your community: school gymnasiums, empty or
partly-emptly warehouses, church halls, businesses with temporary space.

N.2 Relocation/Temporary Storage of
Collections
Areas (within the building, in
another building within the institution, or off-site) to which collections
in imminent danger of becoming
damaged can be relocated, or where undamaged collections can
be temporarily stored are: We urge you to assess frequently (at least
once a year) possible sites in your community: school gymnasiums, empty or
partly-emptly warehouses, church halls, businesses with temporary space.
