Rhode Island Office of Library & Information Services

The Rhode Island Office of Library and Information Services in partnership with the Archives, Preserve RI, the Rhode Island Historical Preservation and Heritage Commission, the Rhode Island Emergency Management Agency, the State Risk Manager, and representatives of library, museum, and heritage institutions groups will build on the achievements of the planning period by continuing to equip individual cultural and heritage collections institutions throughout the state with the tools to create a disaster plan and with training in its use. The steering committee will establish relationships among the various cohorts, foster regional networks, and build strategic alliances between state and federal emergency authorities and collections holders.
