MayDay 2012

From our friends at Heritage Preservation:  

You can take one simple step to prepare for emergencies
Join libraries, museums, archives, historical societies, and preservation organizations across the country in setting aside May 1, 2012, to participate in MayDay, a national effort to prepare for disasters. Promoted by Heritage Preservation and other members of the Heritage Emergency National Task Force, MayDay encourages cultural organizations to take one simple step to protect the art, artifacts, records, books, and historic sites they hold in trust. To help cultural institutions make the most out of MayDay, Heritage Preservation will provide a wealth of activities and information.
Win disaster supplies
This year, turn participation into an opportunity to win free disaster supplies from Gaylord Brothers! Participants that submit a brief description of 2012 MayDay plans or accomplishments by May 31, 2012, to Heritage Preservation will be automatically entered into this random prize drawing.
Purchase discounted resources
Need resources to help you get started? From now until May 31, Heritage Preservation will offer its award-winning Field Guide to Emergency Response and Emergency Response and Salvage Wheel at special MayDay prices. RescuingRecords.com will also offer a 15% discount on its tabletop exercises and the book Implementing the Incident Command System at the Institutional Level
from May 1 to May 6.
