2 Disasters No library is immune Emergencies can be: Hurricanes Floods Fire Tornadoes Excessive Snow Loss of HVAC
3 Coffeyville, Kansas Population (before flood) 10,958 Lies at the lowest geographical point in Kansas Sets on the banks of the Verdigris River Had 500-year flood in 1964 New levees were constructed then to withstand another 500-year flood Then came early Summer 2007
4 And the Rains Came Down Was former director at Coffeyville, KS Public Library during flooding Late June 2007, southern sections of Kansas was hit with several days of very heavy rains after a very wet spring. Hardest rain fell Friday, June 29 and Saturday, June 30

14 Coffeyville Flood July 1, Former Wal-mart and Townsman Hotel
15 Library s Job Given a library s place in the community and the proficiency in gathering, verifying and disseminating of information, it is only natural for the public library to take on a major role during a community disaster.
16 Services Attended all City Hall/Informational meetings so correct information was posted. Obtained and handed out all forms/brochures from FEMA, Red Cross, Kansas Department of Health and EPA, K.A.R.E and others Houses the EPA report about the impact of the flood
17 Services Helped citizens locate and initially apply for FEMA relief until FEMA set up Printed off filing instructions for FEMA, including list of needed documentation Community Room used by environmental cleanup company to work out of until other space could be found Operation Photo Rescue
18 FEMA
19 FEMA Individuals can not sign up for assistance until President declares federal disaster for individuals. Coffeyville received disaster declaration for local government first (Monday, July 2) Individual declaration did not come until July 5
20 FEMA Printed off copies of the Applicant s Guide for help after a disaster. Printed off copy of what documents victims needed when applying. Helped get victims logged in. Met with FEMA representatives and CPL was used for victims sign up until FEMA moved in their own equipment.
21 Services Provided access for Red Cross volunteers, National Guard, and the scores of other service volunteers that came to Coffeyville Library s Community Room was used by local mental health agency to hold town meetings to help citizens deal with emotions Supplied victims information on preservation of damaged property
22 Services Supplied books to the four shelters Worked with the Red Cross in helping people find Internet resources Provided a calming place away from shelter for displaced persons and families City Recreation was displaced used Community Room for crafts classes for a year
23 Family Treasures Preservation Library of Congress Preservation

Outside of Katrina, Coffeyville has been the only other place to receive assistance from this organization Four volunteers came to Coffeyville on September 28 and 29, 2007 to help flood victims restore pictures CPL supplied the contact, room and marketing
25 Operation Photo Rescue
26 Library Disaster Plan Each library needs one But where to start? Who has the time? What goes in it? HELP!
27 Notes of Thanks I received a note and a $15 donation today from Coffeyville: Dear Operation Photo Rescue, Thank you for your love and kindness during my loss. I love the work that you and your group is doing. I am sending you a love gift; wish it could be more. Remember the Lord and you will be Blessed. Cleola Martin

31
32 Response Recovery team must assess the affected area and materials Several things must happen at once Hence the importance of assigning specific duties to each member of the team How much of the collection is damaged? Document damage in writing, speaking into a tape recorder or video-recording the damage Photographs take many to document what has been affected and MUST BE taken before any cleanup work has started
33 Inform the Public Assigned team member Press releases to: Local newspapers Television Radio Use one clear institutional voice Side benefit community will rally to help!
34 Library Disaster Planning After creation, plan should be reviewed and updated yearly City Disaster Plan Check with city officials Make sure they know library is willing to step up and play an active role Volunteer during disaster to stay in touch with city officials and disaster personnel

38 Most Important Role As one anonymous patron said in a customer satisfaction survey done in Fall 2007: It gave us someplace quiet and relaxing to go during the flood and allowed us and our children to get out of the shelter.
