[can-events] Disaster Planning, Response and Recovery Programs, Hobart, 27-28 May

[Apologies for duplication]

ALIA and CAVAL are proud to present DISASTER PLANNING FOR CULTURAL
COLLECTIONS - a one day workshop presented by KIM MORRIS, AICCM Conservator
of the Year 2006.

HOBART, Tuesday 27th May, 9.30 am - 4.30 pm: Christ College Conference Room,
Accommodation Services, College Road, University of Tasmania (Sandy Bay).

A course recommended for managers and staff responsible for cultural
collections in libraries, museums, art galleries and archives that do not
have a current Disaster Response Plan. The course presents a strategic
approach to developing an effective Disaster Response Plan and sets the plan
in the context of practical risk management. A broken water pipe can cause
as much damage to a valuable cultural collection as a serious flood or
cyclone. Is your organisation prepared? 

ALIA members receive special discount price of $354.30 (GST inc). Course
price includes training materials, morning and afternoon refreshments, light
lunch and certificate of attendance.
