   1999 EDITION OF THE DISASTER RECOVERY YELLOW PAGES(tm)
  BEGINS SHIPMENTS - - - coincides with yet another disastrous season




Newton, MA -- The 1999 edition of the Disaster Recovery
Yellow Pages(tm), by The Systems Audit Group, Inc. has begun
shipping, coincidentally during one of the most disastrous seasons
in recent history.

Based on nearly two decades of disaster planning experience, the
Disaster Recovery Yellow Pages(tm) is a 320-page, comprehensive
sourcebook designed to help users locate scores of crucial but
hard-to-find recovery services throughout the United States
and Canada.  It contains over 3000 vendors and covers over 350 categories
such as drying & dehumidification of paper & microfilm records, smoke
odor counteracting services, trauma counselors, emergency rental of
POS and other computer equipment, etc.

The volume is an essential reference for facility managers,
computer operations managers, emergency personnel, risk managers,
security managers, librarians, record managers, systems executives,
and business recovery coordinators, as well as claims adjusters,
insurance agents, and any others responsible for putting organizations
"back to normal" after a crisis.

This reference contains five comprehensive sections, covering restoration
services, mobile buildings, computer and emergency equipment, planning
and data recovery software, as well as training publications and videos.

In addition, The Disaster Recovery Yellow Pages(tm) also includes an
alphabetical listing of companies for ease in locating a vendor without
knowing an address.

The Disaster Recovery Yellow Pages(tm) also includes a tutorial on areas
which are frequently overlooked - even by experienced users - when
preparing their disaster recovery plans, as well as hints on "getting
started"
and preparing a disaster plan.

The Systems Audit Group, Inc., has worked with leaders in the Disaster
Recovery field to develop this comprehensive sourcebook, as well as using

the experiences gained in working with over 100 organizations and
institutions to prepare comprehensive recovery plans for the resumption
of their operations following a disaster.  These organizations have ranged
from Banks and Insurance companies to Manufacturers, Retailers, Colleges,
and other organizations.

The Disaster Recovery Yellow Pages(tm) comes in a three-ring binder, for
ease in adding sources which individual users have gathered that are
unique to their own circumstances.  The price is $98. per copy, plus $3 for
shipping and handling.  Regular updates are available.
