After an overview of emergency preparation and response protocols, participants will take on incident response roles and run through a mock-flood scenario. Hands-on and talking through the process, participants will work to salvage and triage a variety of collection items from a pool, including papers, photographs, and bound materials. A post-scenario debrief gives participants the opportunity to review their actions with workshop instructors. Workshop attendance will be limited due to the hands-on nature of the program.Presenter:Kate Jacus, Preservation Specialist, DHPSNY*Each date is at a different location, please be sure to select which date/location you would like to attend when registering.
