In light of the recent disaster that Hurricane Sandy has brought upon the Eastern United States and the Caribbean, I am forwarding this list of disaster resources offered so thoughtfully by Chris Lacinak of AudioVisual Preservation Solutions. Thank-you, Chris!

 

Please feel free to add to these resources by posting to the IASALIST.

 

Thank-you!

 

Best regards,
