     Network and Berry College.

     Is your institution prepared for a disaster?  Does your staff
     know how to salvage water-damaged materials?  Attend the Disaster
     Recovery Workshop hosted by Berry College in Mount Berry, Georgia
     on October 20, 1995.

     In the blink of an eye, a disaster can decimate your library's
     valuable collections.  This Disaster Recovery Workshop will
     enable your library staff to minimize the loss of valuable
     materials following fire, smoke, or flood damage.  Each
     participant will receive hands-on experience in air-drying and
     packing books, separating and drying manuscripts, rinsing books,
     and drying microforms and photographic materials.  Julie Arnott,
     Manager of Preservation Services at SOLINET, will teach this
     workshop.

     Cost for the workshop is $65 ($60 if you register before October
     5th).  The course will begin at 9 a.m. and conclude at 4 p.m.
     Registration is being handled at Berry College, not at SOLINET.
     Contact the Berry College Continuing Education Department at
     706-236-2270 for further information and to register for the
     workshop.
