Elizabeth,

Another great source is Hertiage Preservation, (
http://www.heritagepreservation.org/PROGRAMS/TASKFER.HTM ),
In there is the "Emergency Responce Wheel" that can be ordered anlong with
lots of other info.  The American Institute for Conservation has a section
on Distaer as well: http://aic.stanford.edu/disaster/
And to find conservators in your area, the AIC has the "Guide to
Conservation Services" as well: http://aic.stanford.edu/faic/refer.html

I hope this helps,

Craig Deller
Director of Communications / AIC
