Abstract

This paper outlines some of the findings of a research project, ‘Disaster management in British libraries’, undertaken at the Department of Information and Library Studies, Loughborough University, and funded by the British Library Research and Development Department. Important issues are examined under two of the key aspects of disaster management, prevention and preparedness.The paper does not cover the two areas of reaction and recovery which were included in a separate presentation, but these aspects are covered in the research and guidelines.
