Description:
|
Libraries and information centers are increasingly dependent upon computers and automated systems, and the data that is obtained through them. Even a few hours without computers and on-line services can be disastrous. Just as disaster response planning is important to keep the paper based services of the library functioning, so is a plan to recover all on-line and automated services and data.
Note: this seminar WILL NOT discuss how to reinstall data onto computer systems.
